Tonight is a crazy night.
Lisa Burton (iO Chicago Grad, performer all over town) and her roommate Tyler Samples (iO Co-Artistic Director of Extended Play, Member of Storytown, iO Grad and Harold team member) will kick ass and take names!
PLAYDATE is a group of improvisers of various levels who are put together for a one-time fun-time! We’ve got top notch performers from Second City Touring Company, iO, Annoyance, CIC, Gorilla Tango, pH Productions, Donny’s Skybox, and your DVD collection who have never played together before! Anything could happen! The Inaugural Playdate Ensemble includes: Dana Quercioli (RedCo! Second City Touring Company), Denise Swindell (All over Chicago!), Rachel Miller (Second City, Boom Chicago), Gregory Hollimon (Second City, Strangers With Candy), Neil Arsenty (Donny’s Skybox, The Playground, and all over) , Leslie Nesbit (Annoyance, iO), Megan Kelleher (Annoyance, pH Productions), Christian Weber– the newbie to the group
Finally, Closing their run at “Extended Play” will be “Matt and Natalie” are total jerks. Matt Young and Natalie Sullivan have been improvising a combined total of 24 years. However, they just met last year and found out they had something great in common: They are both total a-holes. In Matt & Natalie are Total Jerks they ask the audience to reveal something private about themselves that they may not be too proud of. By exploring topics such as arrogance, infidelity, lust, jealousy, and hatred, Matt and Natalie ask the audience to embrace their darker side as fully as they have.
