We all have intrusive thoughts that replay over and over in our heads. A cougar hits on you in a Jacksonville waffle house. Your priest has a food addiction that ruins your wedding.
Penny For Your Intrusive Thoughts is our sketch comedy show where you can see your wildest intrusive thoughts come to life: mattress bros, rapid fire therapy, and much, much more.
Maybe even contribute to our pledge drive. Easily worth your best penny 😉
Featuring: Lillian Fitzmaurice, Lily Gaddis, Charlotte Harris, Sydney Koehler, Jason McEachin, Maddie Reese, Casey Welles

director’s note
PENNY FOR YOUR INTRUSIVE THOUGHTS was a major undertaking, with a team of 10 writers and a rare expanded running time. Our 65-minutes or original sketch comedy was produced through the Writing Program at the Second City Training Center in January 2024. As a faculty member, I directed the Writer’s Room that became this show through a 3-month process which included writing, casting, and rehearsing with the ensemble.
