Andrew Agress (producer of Overnight, summer 2018), has been busy in Chicago!

In November he was cast in Random Fandom, an improv troupe that performs around Chicago. They recently opened for shows at The Annoyance and the DeMaat Theater at Second City. He recently completed an internship at Windy City Playhouse and is now working at the Chicago History Museum. He's also taking an improv class at The Annoyance Theater.

Here he is with his improv troupe.
