Inspired by Chicago’s legendary improv troupe The Family, Brian James O’Connell performs the solo improvised show The 3 Insane Rituals, composed of the most difficult long form improv pieces (The Deconstruction, F.O.I.L. The Rolling Harold) back to back to back without stopping before recapping the entire piece at the end of the show from beginning to end in real time. Come watch BOC fall down the stairs without breaking his own heart.
