"showing just how refined and in-tune two people can be… simply amazing to
watch…" "Consummate professionals. Wonderfully talented and funny individuals. And a great team to work with, too." Bare is two men who perform with the energy and presence of a 10-person group -- a ten-person group with some acrobats, a fire-eater, and a rock band in there somewhere. Their show starts with a single audience suggestion, and from that tiny seed they grow an improvisational tornado of extraordinary characters, extraordinary situations, and usually at least one impersonation of a live animal. It’s hard to believe, but Bare is just two men: Fuzzy Gerdes and Shaun
Himmerick. They’ve been performing together in one group or another for
ten years (with a break for Shaun’s unmentionable Colorado years). They both
have impeccable improv pedigrees, with training from institutions like the
ImprovOlympic and Annoyance Theater and from instructors like Del Close,
Mick Napier, and Keith Johnstone. These days they live in the same apartment
in Chicago, argue over whose turn it is to do the dishes, and work on their
wildly inventive improv. |
