Roaring with Laughter! This Too Shall Slap at The Second City Mainstage (Open Run)

A man has just been fired, so he gathers his things. “Seperate Ways” by Journey starts to play. Then, he rips an apron off one of his coworkers. Then, he grabs a wig off another. “Hey, that’s my real hair” he exclaims! Next, he pulls off a black shirt from another coworker, who is wearing an identical shirt right under it. This scene continues in an epic slow-motion montage which has the audience roaring with laughter. 

This Too Shall Slap is full of hilarious scenes likes this one. Also, there is very little mention of politics, which is a nice break. 

Jordan Stafford is hilarious as the grandma calling all the numbers she has written down (without names next to them) to wish Darlene a Happy Birthday.  Adonis Holmes is outstanding as the kid who goes absolutely nuts after being eliminated from a game of musical chairs.  Hannah Ingle is so funny as the daughter of two black men, who needs to be introduced to white culture.  

Adisa Williams cracks everyone up as the kid who is so embarrassed by her father interrupting play time.  Bill Letz is absolutely hilarious as a father more focused on his X-rated crossword than on his three daughters picking out a wedding dress for one of them.  Leila Gorstein is outrageous as the body builder going through a tough workout.
