Improv 1 SUN (Pechous) & Improv 2 SUN (Rittmaster) Class Show Tickets

The world of comedy is filled with many different styles and techniques. One form that has gained popularity in recent years is improv comedy – the art of creating scenes and characters on the spot, based on audience suggestions.

Two classes at The Second City Training Center, Improv 1 SUN (taught by John Pechous) and Improv 2 SUN (taught by Ed Rittmaster), recently put on a class show that showcased their talents and abilities in the art of improv.

The show was held on a Sunday evening at the Training Center's black box theater, and it was a packed house. The audience was treated to a night of laughter and hilarity as the two classes took turns performing improvised scenes.

One of the things that stood out about the show was the diversity of the scenes. No two scenes were alike, and the performers brought completely different characters and scenarios to life. One scene might be a parody of a soap opera, while the next could be a fast-paced action movie.

Another key element of the show was the performers' willingness to take risks. It takes a lot of courage to get up on stage without a script and create something from scratch. But the performers in both classes showed no fear, diving headfirst into their scenes and committing fully to their characters and situations.

Some of the most memorable moments of the show came from the performers' ability to listen and build off each other's ideas. When one performer introduced a new character or plot twist, their scene partner would immediately react and respond, keeping the scene moving forward and building to bigger laughs.

Overall, Improv 1 SUN and Improv 2 SUN proved to be talented groups of comedians who have honed their skills through months of training at The Second City. The class show was a testament to their hard work and dedication to the craft of comedy.
