Nathan and Alan at Edmonton Fringe Festival. Nathan Fillion and Alan Tudyk are participating in a nightly improv show at Edmonton's Fringe Festival.

Sunday night Nathan Fillion made a surprise appearance in the improve show “Die-Nasty” at the Edmonton Fringe Festival. The following morning Mark Meers, one of the Die-Nasty regulars, circulated an e-mail informing everyone who hadn’t attended that they had missed out but not to “despair – [it's] sure to be followed up with more hilarity from Nathan (and other potential special guests!) in the coming days.” Monday night Nathan was back again, and this time so was Alan Tudyk! No comment was made as to whether either would continue to appear throughout the remainder of the Fringe.

Die-Nasty bills itself as an “improvised soap opera”, with each actor portraying a different character. The director announces the location of the scene and the actors participating, and then the hilarity begins. Nathan used to perform with the troupe on a regular basis when he lived in Edmonton, and has returned to participate in the show at least once before, during the 2006 Fringe. Die-Nasty runs at the Fringe every night at 11:30 through August 23.
