  3. Sheila’s Sister and Her Musical Cousins


An improv duo and a music duo make up this comedy quartet. Your suggestions and choice of instruments will inspire the duo to inspire the duo to inspire the quartet. Come see and hear their banjo, bells, cranks, drums, guitars, keyboard, rain stick, tambourine, trumpet and many more objects be blown, picked, shaken, struck and strummed.

Dana and Edmund O'Brien have improvised together for 32 years. As Sheila's Sister they've been likened to Nichols and May by the Chicago Improv Festival's Jonathan Pitts and touted by CenterStage, "This duo knows how to use its unrivaled familiarity to brilliant comedic effect." Yet they are even more brilliant with Her Musical Cousins (Rob Denien and Alec Synakowski). During their last run together, a local high school newspaper claimed, "This was one of the funniest shows I have seen in a long time..." Thus, the show had to be remounted.
