www.ucbtheatre.com Jordan Klepper (Steve and Jordan, Second City) and Laura Grey (Second City) are bringing their baggage to the stage. And they're dumping it all on you. Praised by the Chicago Tribune for being "Exceedingly smart" sketch performers with "Chaotic Genius" they have joined forces to write a new show about just how annoying love can be. Cults, babies, secretions, dolphin blood, and old-timey wise-cracks: they want you to commit to them. At least for half an hour.
Starring Jordan Klepper and Laura Grey
Directed by Megan Kellie (Karla) and Michael Patrick O'Brien (SNL)
JORDAN KLEPPER:
Jordan was a comedic correspondent for the Big Ten Network 's "Friday Night Tailgate". For two years, he toured the globe with the "Second City National Touring Company." He was a regular at Improv Olympic where he wrote and starred in multiple comedy shows. One such show, STEVE AND JORDAN, got a lot of attention and played at UCB, NY.
Laura recently relocated to New York from Chicago where she wrote and performed two original revues at The Second City Etc., improvised at places like iO, The Annoyance, Second City, Comedy Sportz, and acted in a bunch of plays most notably The House Theater's original adaptation of the "Nutcracker" at the Steppenwolf. Before that she traveled with the "ferocious three-woman sketch troupe" TRIPLETTE to San Francisco Sketchfest, Sketchfest NYC, and The Chicago Improv Festival.
