The new Brooklyn-based location, which is set to feature two cabaret-style live theaters, seven Training Center classrooms, and a full-service restaurant and bar, has announced its slate and cast.
“There is no better way to kick off our 65th anniversary celebrations than by opening the doors to The Second City New York in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. As the center of global culture and entertainment, New York represents a wonderful opportunity for us to showcase our world-renowned brand of comedy-based entertainment with an incredible NYC-based cast, and to deliver our proprietary Yes, And… improv-based training,” said Ed Wells, The Second City CEO.
Jen Ellison will direct The Second City Mainstage 1 revue, with Alan Kliffer serving as artistic director NYC and Matt Priggeas producer. Jeff Bouthiette is musical director, with Kayla Freeman as stage manager, and technical direction from Kurt Cruz. The Second City opened in 1959 as a small comedy cabaret, and is credited with helping launch and bolster the careers of comedy and entertainment greats like Jordan Peele, Steve Carell, Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert, Amy Poehler, Bill Murray, Eugene Levy, Aidy Bryant, Dan Aykroyd, Catherine O’Hara, Mike Myers, Tim Meadows, Cecily Strong, Alan Alda, Keegan-Michael Key as well as the late Alan Arkin, John Belushi, Chris Farley, John Candy and Gilda Radner.
