The Second City Presents 80th Revue PARTY TODAY, PANIC TOMORROW
By: BWW News Desk
The Second City is proud to present its 80th Mainstage Revue, Party Today, Panic Tomorrow, opening Wednesday, August 23, 2017 for an extended engagement.
Party Today, Panic Tomorrow expresses the absurd dilemmas of life in 2017. This hilarious, all-new sketch revue reflects suffering from political exhaustion, screaming over board games, settling scores with dance-offs, and taking life advice from a giant banana. The Second City Mainstage cast will help audiences spin, sing and laugh their troubles away. Party Today, Panic Tomorrow is created and performed by The Second City Toronto Mainstage cast, featuring new cast members Allana Reoch (Panacea!) and Nadine Djoury (Newborn Moms), who will join returning Mainstage cast members Ann Pornel (Baroness Von Sketch Show), Brandon Hackett (This Hour Has 22 Minutes), Colin Munch (Uncalled For), and Devon Hyland (Stay Out of the Desert). Party Today, Panic Tomorrow is directed by The Second City alum Leslie Seiler, in her debut as a Mainstage director, and assistant to the director Karen Parker, making them The Second City's first all-female directing team. Returning creatives include Musical Director Lee Cohen, Set Designer Camellia Koo, Stylist Melanie McNeill, and Lighting Designer Christina Cicko, while Georgia Priestley-Brown joins as Stage Manager.The Second City Toronto presents
