Inspired by the sketch comedy of Milwaukee’s broadminded Comedy and Patrick Schmitz’s semi-annual Sketch 22 and encouraged by Milwaukee Comedy Festival founder Matt Kemple, a handful of Milwaukee comedy performers formed the Sketch Marks late last year.
Sketch Marks includes individuals* recognizable from other Milwaukee comedy groups such as ComedySportz, The Improvised Musical (T.I.M.), Bye Bye Liver, The Dinner Detective, Tall Boys and Racine’s Over Our Heads Players.
After two appearances in the Comedy Arcade Show, Sketch Marks is presenting its first stand-alone show.
See Sketch Marks at 7:30 p.m., Friday, March 28, in the Arcade Theatre, at the Underground Collaborative, 161 W. Wisconsin Ave., lower level.
Tickets are $7 in advance and $10 at the door.
*Members of Sketch Marks include Kristin Althoff, Joel Dresang, Amanda Eaton, Scott Heaton, Lee Rowley, Becca Segal, Amanda Stellberg and Lindsey Walcott. (A prior commitment is depriving us from enjoying Amanda Stellberg in the March 28 show.)
