Sketch and Improv

Trained at Second City in high school, Siobhan has recently gotten back into improv and sketch creation, learn more about her work here.

Early Work

Siobhan started her acting journey through writing. She started taking sketch writing at Second City in high school, before taking additional classes in improv, acting and stand-up. She has always had a love for comedy writing, but took a short break from it as she explored other passions in early college. 

​

Siobhan dipped her toe back into writing in 2022, when she played Logainne in The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. Siobhan wrote and performed several variations of the famous "Does anybody care about the rules" speech, amongst other improvised bits. The next year, Siobhan returned to the show as Rona, during which she wrote and improvised even more bits for the improv-inspired musical.

Untitled Era

Having sparked a newfound interest in comedy writing, Siobhan auditioned for North Central College's experimental theatre group "Untitled!" in late 2024 and was quickly accepted into the group based on her video sketch "notasexthing@hoottruth.gov"

​

Before choosing to leave the group in September 2025, Siobhan was part of several events with Untitled!, including as a writer and performer in a few "30/60 Shows" A sketch comedy format inspired by Chicago's The Neo-Futurists. This briefly gave her a space to pilot some short-form sketch premises and practice her directing, writing and video editing skills on skits like "Untitled Simulator", "How to Circle" and "Untitled Serves the Community".

Future Goals

Having reinvigorated a passion for sketch writing, Siobhan decided to start sharpening her skills in Improvisation as well. 

Most recently, Siobhan attended IO Fest in Chicago, seeing several troupes perform. She also participated in the "Set Bitch Free" workshop taught by Devin Bockrath. 

​

Siobhan is incredibly excited to continue learning and working in comedy, not only enriching her theatrical performances in comedy-heavy roles like Sara Jane Moore in Assassins, but as a way to explore a whole world of incredible work and talent in the comedic sphere.
