(Kirsten's website) THE SHOW Both Keilly and Roeters have extensive backgrounds as stage actors and improvisers, and their sketches are predominately created through the haphazard process of spinning well-created characters dangerously out of control, giving their scripted work a seldom-seen spontaneity that takes comedic hairpin turns from careless fun into the darkest places of human nature. Not like, Rwanda or anything. More like the unremitting despair that comes from outgrowing a month-old pair of Lucky jeans, or realizing that your sister is prettier than you, or Bosnia.
