The Second City comedy troupe at the Flamingo Hotel and Casino are currently doing a show that is based around suggestions from the audience. This type of improvised skits are increasingly popular with comedy loving audiences everywhere, and the Las Vegas shows are no different.
There is no real script for the show. It’s a kind of free for all, if you like with no real expectation of what will happen. It’s spontaneous and outrageous, the unexpected can and does happen, and the overall result is quite simply hilariously funny. There’s a lot of satire flowing around during the shows. The scenarios are comic, social and political, depending on the situation and the requirement of the moment. The audience feel a real part of the show, as their participation is essential to its success.
The show currently being presented is a new format for the Flamingo production. All the material is improvised, not just bits of it. The cast are well able to keep up. In fact, they are well ahead of it all. The comic fivesome are made up of, Martin Garcia, Bridget Kloss, Seamus McCarthy, Amanda Blake Davis, and Craig Uhlir.
Expect some very quick-witted performances at the Second City show. Expect also to be well entertained and fully satisfied. Expect perhaps to have aches and pains from laughing too much, though that shouldn’t really be a problem as that is exactly what you are presumably seeking form this show. According to www.igoshows.com: “The show is a lot of fun. It is alive and fresh, and a show that would definitely be fun to go to more than once.” I wholeheartedly agree!
