Marcy’s UCB sketch team, The Space Program, went to Chicago last weekend for the Chicago Sketch Comedy Festival. Here’s what the Chicago Reader had to say about their show!
You know you’re in for a treat when a troupe starts off their show by leading the audience in a prayer to Belial, Beelzebub, and Satan, and Space Program were fucking great. Every bit in their pop-culture-heavy show worked—especially the one about what happens after The Goonies ends and Sloth has lived with Chunk and his Mom for three days. Among my other favorites: Nicholas Cage wishing he could star in the Kelsey Grammer classic, Down Periscope; a woman telling her flawless friend why she pooped in her birthday cake; and a post-apocalyptic birds-and-bees talk with serious incestual overtones.
