To celebrate The Second City’s 65th anniversary, Kelly sits down with the members of the legendary theatre’s creative leadership team to talk about how each of them found their way to The Second City. 

Give me a favorite quote from Second City. 

Bernie Sahlins said, “Our scenes – and a case can be made that it is true for all comedy – are based on pointing out the difference between What people say and what they do, what they profess to believe and what they practice, what out to be and what is.” 

Anyone else have another quote? 

Sheldon Patinkin said, “Most people say a team is only as good as its weakest member. At Second City, that’s not true. What we say is that your team is only as good as its ability to compensate for its weakest member.” 

One more? 

Martin de Maat said, “You are pure potential.”
