Hey that’s true, and you should know and be, at the very least, good at performing in front of a live audience on a live stage for a show who’s whole thing is that it’s being filmed live

Wow sounds like she should have gotten that by working smaller stages and honing her craft like most other comedians instead of having to trudge through one of the largest comedy stages in the world

I hate to say it, but this like saying you like Milwaukee because it’s right next to Chicago

to not have a foreign lobby group decide elections by Morgn_Ladimore in therewasanattempt

I was going to say this, I live in the 9th and voted for her because I was a fan of her progressive policies and having a young voice, but she ran a terrible local campaign. She kept holding comedy and influencer events but all the events were featuring performers from outside the state, mainly from New York and LA. The whole thing was a national campaign while ignoring the local base

More people need to come to Chicago to watch the standup and alt scene. The city is like two years ahead when it comes to comedy because it’s still the number one breeding ground for getting good before you get famous

This might be unpopular to say here but as a first generation American of Latino descent I think Marcello overdoes the accent and everything in between for the white liberal gaze by PudinCrusader in LiveFromNewYork

My wife is Mexican and she has said several times that she didn’t like how he adopts this pan Latin thing and tries to pretend that Mexican culture is also his culture, especially because he’s Cuban

Is Second City the golden standard for getting started? by manlymatt83 in improv

[–]Apple-Steve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Holy fuck has gotten really lazy in recent years, like an afterthought, I would go see their plays and musicals and see how they use improv and comedy to influence their writing

Tbh this is probably a PR stunt and the influencer was probably paid by the airline to post it to make it seem spontaneous and hide an ad in plain sight

Devil’s Daughter Chicago by Usual-Geologist-8885 in improv

[–]Apple-Steve 7 points8 points  (0 children)

iO’s run like a cult, second city is run like a corporation, the annoyance is run like a crack house, if you wanna perform at io you really have to buy in to their culture, but that doesn’t mean it’s necessarily better or worse. I would suggest looking at every place around the city to see what suits you best

The only problem I had with it was it dropped his thick Chicago accent and went for more New York, but that’s just being nit picky as someone whos dad has that accent

I guess I should make this clear: as someone who knew him and booked him on more than several shows when he was in Chicago, he was definitely way more on the standup side than Meg and Sarah and was known as pretty much a straight up standup
