Carisa and Kevin are a sketch comedy and improv performing couple of live-together lovers.
They’ve both performed with The Second City’s Boat Co on Norwegian Cruise Lines and are immersed in so many comedy-related activities in Chicago that we talked for close to two hours.
We discuss hunting the most dangerous game, dramatic juggling and why The Second City is a good place to go on a date.
