TJ & Dave

Thumb_tj_and_dave

One of the most critically acclaimed improv shows in the country, Second City alumni TJ Jagodowski and David Pasquesi promise “this is all made up” as they create a 45-minute showcase for elaborately imagined characters whose relationships reveal the wildly funny quirks of human nature. If you’ve never seen long-form improv before, this is an excellent place to start.

Starring: TJ Jagodowski, Dave Pasquesi

"The comics TJ Jagodowski and Dave Pasquesi miraculously improvise a one-hour play at every performance. This is an impressive feat of mental athletics, but the results are also observant, complex and frequently enormously funny." - The New York Times

"BRILLIANT, HEARTBREAKING, MIND-BLOWING, INSPIRING! The best 50 minutes of improv comedy that we've ever seen. But we wouldn't want to insult their effusive skills by speaking so simplistically. Also, it's funny. Drink their Kool-Aid." - Time Out New York

"TJ Jagodowski and Dave Pasquesi, two of the world's finest practitioners of the art of long-form improv, create an hour long one-act play. They're both great actors and have amazing improv chops, but it's always hard to notice these kinds of things when you're peeing your pants laughing." - Time Out Chicago

"The cumulative effect of their spontaneous storytelling is breathtaking...Without-a-net derring-do brand of theatre." - nytheatre.com
