MONEY MACHINE!
Comedian phenom, Tony Sam, and improv and stand-up impresario Nick Morgan, team up to present a four week run at Chicago's Apollo Theater Studio in Lincoln Park every Wednesday night in September, of all new stand-up, two-man improv, sketch and video shorts. A team of comedic proportions, Sam and Morgan are veterans of the Chicago comedy scene. With a combined performance experience of 12 years, they in many ways share similar performance backgrounds and in many ways they do not. They recently teamed up to create what can only be described as hilarious synergy that was heralded in TimeOut Chicago.
