To celebrate and highlight the upcoming 11th annual Chicago Improv Festival [June 2-8, 2008], CIF Productions is having its first ever “CIF Preview” with performances at The Second City Skybox on April 25-26, 2008.
Chicago Improv Festival Productions' Executive Director Jonathan Pitts says, “We have 10 wonderful Chicago acts performing in our preview and they're all part of our CIF 2008 roster. This is a great line-up, as we are happy to give an extra showcase to such strong Chicago talent.”
CIF Artistic Director Mark Sutton, who selected the Chicago ensembles for the roster of CIF 2008, said, “I originally wanted to call the CIF Preview weekend, 'A Celebration of Chicago Comedy' because that's what it will be. We can show our audiences 10 very funny Chicago improv teams, as well as give those Chicago teams an extra chance to perform with CIF. It's going to be a great weekend!”
