About Improv 2 Square with John Lutz and Peter
At UCB Theatre, *Improv 2 Square with John Lutz and Peter* pairs John Lutz with Peter Grosz for a two-person improv set built on the discipline of sketch writing. Lutz brings a background from *30 Rock* and writers’ rooms at *Saturday Night Live* and *Late Night with Seth Meyers*, and the performance draws on that economy of timing. The show sits in a New York tradition where UCB has helped formalize long-form improv as a repeatable craft. One clear effect is how silence and understatement become usable tools, not gaps to fill.
