TimeOut Chicago LOVES Eleanor!

First, we were featured in a swell article about us and our friends Fart City, as well as our fantastic coaches! You can read that HERE.

THEN we got even BETTER NEWS!!! Our new bff Jason Heidemann of TimeOut Chicago LOVED our CIF show, and included us in his wrap-up review! Read the awesomeness HERE.

For those of you who don’t like links, I’ll include the highlight reel:

“Kudos to Chicago-based girl group Eleanor who played Friday night at the Playground. These ladies did a fine job constructing scene work that alternated between smart and silly and included Bake-Her, a feminist bakery where they make labia-shaped cakes, an art film at the Siskel called, “The Floor,” and a zombie theater ensemble who overshadows the leading lady. Most impressive was the way these women supported each other and played together so seamlessly. No single ensemble member stood out among this group and that’s probably the highest compliment you can pay an improv troupe.”

So thank you SO MUCH to everyone who came out, and to everyone who’s supported us throughout are 1.5 years on the Chicago Improv Scene. You guys make us happy in our lady parts!
