CIC: Hey Cynthia Shur you have been with the show now for almost all of the over 30
show run. What is your favorite moment so far?
Cynthia: It’s a tie: the vaudeville performance involving dinner roles and spoons, and F. Tyler being cancer on Ed Flynn’s body.
CIC: What is the hardest thing about doing the show?
Cynthia: Finding a balance between pushing the story and allowing for a little venture into what we like to call Bit City.
CIC: What is your favorite thing about doing the show?
Cynthia: The opportunity to play with all of the different theater styles, and the delight of taking horrendous theater reviews and turning them on their heads, poking a little fun at the authority of theater critics.
CIC: What is some other projects you are working on right now?
Cynthia: I am performing in a show called The Brides of Ghost Hunter Richard Crowe, a look at the haunted areas of Chicago. I am also working on adapating a novel for the stage, Earthshine by Theresa Nelson, and performing with CIC’s improv team 96D.
CIC: What is something none of your cast mates know about you?
Cynthia: I was on a league champion field hockey team in high school.
CIC: Anything else you wanna add?
Cynthia: I miss all of the past cast members, and hope you’re having fun wherever you are! We love you!
