“Freak Dance” is a musical and dance comedy film presented by the Upright Citizens Brigade.

The sexy and wealthy Cocolonia (Megan Heyn) must escape her rich mother (Amy Poehler) and learn to dance-fight in the streets with the help of Funky Bunch (Michael Cassady), who dreams of being the best dancer ever.

Founded by Amy Poehler, Matt Besser, Ian Roberts and Matt Walsh, who have theaters in New York and Los Angeles, the troupe brings its film to the Terrace Theatre at 11:59 p.m. Saturday followed by a Q&A session with Besser.

Upright alumni include performers and writers for “Saturday Night Live,” “The Office,” “The Daily Show With Jon Stewart,” “30 Rock,” “Late Night With Jimmy Fallon,” “Conan” and “The Colbert Report” as well as for such feature films as “Bridesmaids,” “Anchorman” and “Talladega Nights.”

Advance tickets are avaiable via Brown Paper Tickets here.
