Urlakis & Cusick Bring Original Revue To The Stage at Stage 773 11/12-12/17

By: Nov. 03, 2011

After successful performances at the Chicago Sketch Comedy Fest, 14@Stage773 and Sketch-It, veteran sketch comedy writers and performers Dave Urlakis and Sean Cusick are bringing their original fast-paced, razor-sharp revue Urlakis & Cusick to Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont Ave., every Saturday night at 10:30 p.m. from November 12 through December 17. Opening night/press night is Saturday, Nov. 12 at 10:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 and can be purchased at the Stage 773 box office, by calling 773.327.5252 or online at www.Stage773.com.

During their show, Urlakis & Cusick riff on everything from human resources departments to what dads should name their kids, from the really odd professions some people have to the bizarre relationships between friends, co-workers and family members. Life and death, work and politics, marriage and parenting, they're all on the table and ready to be skewered over the course of this smart and funny 70-minute performance.

Dave Urlakis and Sean Cusick first met working on the groundbreaking religious satire and critically-acclaimed sketch show Best Church of God. Cusick co-created the hit "Sodomites! The Musical" for the Annoyance Theatre, directed for the Second City and has written for Green Screen Adventures on WCIU-TV. Urlakis is an ensemble member at ComedySportz Chicago, half of the two-person long form improv group Batterymouth and the creator behind the viral YouTube channel Awkward Spaceship, which has been featured on The Huffington Post, Gizmodo and CBSNews.com.

Urlakis & Cusick runs Saturdays at 10:30 p.m. at Stage 773, 1225 W. Belmont Ave., November 12 - December 17. Opening night/press night is Saturday, Nov. 12 at 10:30 p.m. Tickets for all performances are $15 and available at the Stage 773 box office by calling 773.327.5252 or online at www.stage773.com.
