VIDEO: Second City Bob Curry Fellowship

From John Belushi and Gilda Radner... to Tina Fey, Second City has launched the careers of some comedic 'greats'... and while they've long had a program to scout for diverse talent... this year, Second City launched its first -free- fellowship, to get even more actors of color interested in Improv. Bob Curry was Second City's first African-American cast member back in the 60's. This winter, the famous Improv comedy company launched a Fellowship program in Curry's name. 16 Curry 'fellows' were selected to receive 8 weeks of training. On the final night, all of the fellows put on a showcase of some of the best Second City sketches from the last 50 years! Second City will again offer this fellowship program in 2015!
