Sin City’s Newest Improv Show Sheds Hysterical Light on the Daily Grind!

 Kelly Onyx

LOS ANGELES (February 9, 2014) — Kelly Shibari will be the featured guest star for “Don’t Quit Your Day Job” Thursday, February 12. The live show, featuring hilarious improv performers and a special guest from entertainment, politics, service, and other industries, occurs weekly at Las Vegas’ Onyx Theatre and is hosted by Second City alums Derek and Natalie Shipman.

“2015 has started off with invitations to appear on live shows like Derek’s, and it’s been so much fun!” says Kelly. “I’m looking forward to seeing how my experiences as a roadie, a production designer in Hollywood, and the adult industry will be interpreted by an improv team. I’m sure it’s going to be weird, funny, and definitely entertaining!”

“Don’t Quit Your Day Job” follows a talk show format, with a special guest interviewed by one of the Shipmans. As the guest shares their workplace tales, a group of improvisors recreate events on the spot, often to hysterical and enlightening results.

“Everyone’s had one of those jobs – the one with stories so ridiculous nobody would ever believe them,” says Derek. “Truth is indeed stranger, and funnier, than fiction; we’re putting those stories on stage.”

“We are thrilled to have Kelly as a guest on our show,” adds Derek. “She’s absolutely charming and is ready to wow us with incredible stories. Get ready – this show should prove to be a real blast!”

 

“Don’t Quit Your Day Job” starts at 9:30pm PST on Thursday, February 12. Tickets are $10 and are available through the Onyx Box Office on the night of the performance; advance tickets are available at https://onyxtheatre.thundertix.com/orders/new?performance_id=1369163.
