Description

Monthly Improv Comedy Open Stage at Uncommon Ground! Join us and try out your latest material while enjoying some fresh made bites and sips!

Hosted by: Nick Bonsignore & Brian McCreadie

Nick Bonsignore is an improv comedian from Harleysville, PA, a suburb of Philly. You can find him performing at CIC theater, iO Theater, the Second City Training Center, and the Annoyance Theater. When Nick is not on stage, he's planning camping trips he’ll never go on. But you’ll only find him if you try really hard, he’s good at hiding.

Brian McCreadie is an actor, singer/songwriter, improviser, and writer based in Chicago who has trained and performed at places like Black Box Acting, iO Chicago, UCB Theatre, The Annoyance, and Logan Square Improv. He recently starred in a feature-length thriller called The Corridor Crossing and will be starring in an upcoming feature-length crime thriller called Busybody. He's currently in post-production on his first short film, Poems For Sale, and recording his first album, Brighter Than A Lemon, both planned to release in 2023.

UNCOMMON GROUND HAS HAD A FOCUS ON MUSIC AND LIVE ART EVENTS SINCE IT FIRST OPENED AS A LITTLE COFFEE HOUSE IN 1991. OUR PERFORMANCE PROGRAM INCLUDES LIVE SHOWS EVERY WEEK! THE GOAL FROM THE VERY BEGINNING, WAS TO BE GROUND ZERO FOR EMERGING LOCAL & NATIONAL TOURING ARTISTS EACH NIGHT. OWNER MICHAEL CAMERON BOOKED ALL OF THE ENTERTAINMENT FROM 1991 UNTIL 2007 & STILL OVERSEES THE MUSIC PROGRAM WITH OUR PART TIME MUSIC DIRECTOR, MARIA SCHROEDER. 

WE HOST ONE OF THE BEST OPEN MICS IN THE COUNTRY EVERY SUNDAY, WHICH IS SPONSORED BY SHURE & GREENSTAR ORGANIC BREWERY. MANY OF OUR TALENTED NIGHTLY PERFORMERS HAVE GONE ON TO CRITICAL ACCLAIM. WITH UNCOMMON GROUND'S INTERNATIONAL REPUTATION, YOU NEVER KNOW WHO YOU MIGHT CATCH IN OUR INTIMATE ACOUSTIC LISTENING ROOMS.

ALL SALES ARE FINAL! WE ARE NOT ABLE TO PROCESS ANY REFUNDS OR EXCHANGES FOR EVENT TICKETS.
