Dutch-American journalist, lawyer, and America correspondent Michiel Vos joins the cast on stage to kick off the 6th annual Boom Chicago Comedy Festival! And celebrate the 250th birthday of the United States!

Known for his commentary on American politics and culture across Dutch and Belgian media, Michiel brings his unique perspective, and hopefully a few good stories, to the stage.

This special edition of Improv Spectacular features local and international heroes sharing personal stories that inspire the cast, the comedy, and the entire night. Previous guests include comedy legend Conan O’Brien, Amsterdam mayor Femke Halsema, actress Kiernan Shipka (Mad Men, Industry), and Dutch favorite David Elsendoorn (Ted Lasso).

Inspired by Vos, the cast creates completely original improvised scenes, kooky characters, and spontaneous songs, resulting in a one-night-only comedy that draws on his life and world. Come see why many Boom fans call this our most impressive and funniest show!

Because if we can’t fix America, we might as well laugh about it.
