Reunion Show in Santa Monica next month!!!



FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Spitfire Comedy from Chicago, Illinois, to Reunite March 6 in Santa Monica!

On March 6, 2009, some of Chicago's most hilarious stand-up comics will perform together again in a very special reunion show in sunny Santa Monica!

Spitfire Comedy is a collective of female stand-up comedians who joined forces the summer of 2006 in Chicago. Since then, three of the co-founders moved to Los Angeles, and three moved to New York City to pursue their comedy dreams. But for one night only this March, they will perform together again.

This show, at Santa Monica’s Westside Eclectic, will feature NYC’s Kara Buller, Joselyn Hughes (currently nominated for Emerging Comic in the ECNY Awards), L.A.’s Hannah Gansen, Becky Garcia, and Renee Gauthier (Victoria Beckham: Coming to America), and Chicago’s Allison Leber and Hattie Snider, with special guest host Tammy Jo Dearen.
