Chicago Improv Festival Beginning Soon, Second City Vets on NBC, Blerds in LA
Catch legendary Chicago improvisers Susan Messing (pictured at right) and Mark Sutton on "Chicago Tonight" on WTTW at 7:00 p.m., discussing the Chicago Improv Festival, which kicks off all over the damn city on April 23, delighting Chicago with special celebrity guests and international improv through the 29th.
Chicagoist is also warning us that Oprah will be hosting the cast of NBC's Thank God You're Here, which features two Second City veterans, Maribeth Monroe and Nyima Funk. Tune in if you dare.
Our marginally cooler, slightly better-tanned California brothers at The Coming are touting The Blerds' swing through the Golden State. The Blerds show is at the Improv in Irvine and features special guest Doug Benson. The following night, the Blerds will be tearing it up again at at the UCB.
