Urlakis & Cusick, the Chicago-based sketch comedy duo, will premiere of their second original sketch comedy revue, "Urlakis & Cusick: Questionable Lullabies," at Stage 773 beginning October 12th.

Veteran performers Dave Urlakis and Sean Cusick first met and discovered their comedic compatibility while working on the groundbreaking hit sketch show "Best Church of God." Last year their self-titled two-man debut, "Urlakis & Cusick," was hailed as one of the funniest shows of 2011 by Time Out Chicago, who called it “seriously funny stuff, likably geeky and spot-on in its ridicule.”

"Urlakis & Cusick: Questionable Lullabies" promises to be another hour-long blitz of highly-intelligent humor mixed with just the right amount of lunacy and R-rated inappropriateness.

Performances will be at 8PM on Fridays, October 12 through November 16, at Stage 773, The Cab, 1225 W Belmont Ave, Chicago. Tickets are $15 and available online at Stage773.com or by calling 773-237-5252.

Dave Urlakis is an ensemble member at ComedySportz Chicago, is half of the two-person long form improv group Batterymouth, and is the creator behind the viral YouTube channel Awkward Spaceship, which has been featured on The Huffington Post, Gizmodo and G4TV’s Attack of the Show.

Sean Cusick is a teacher and performer at the Annoyance Theatre where he also co-created the hit Sodomites! The Musical, has taught and directed for the Second City, and is a writer for the Daytime Emmy Award-winning Green Screen Adventures on WCIU-TV.

Formerly known as Theatre Building Chicago, Stage 773 is a multi-theater performing arts venue located in the heart of Lakeview. The historic venue is now redesigned to include four different performance spaces of varying sizes and styles: the Thrust (mainstage), the Pro (proscenium mainstage), the Box (black box), and the Cab (cabaret). Striving to offer support to artists as they develop their voices and talents, Stage 773 provides rehearsal and performance space, professional knowledge and experience, and a nurturing environment to help actors, directors, designers, writers and other artists reach their potential.
