'Sex & the Second City' sends up dating in the digital age
Second City shows tend to travel in a pretty consistent direction: northwest from Chicago's Old Town to downtown Arlington Heights and the Metropolis Performing Arts Centre, site of several Second City remounts.
But Second City reverses the route with “Sex & The Second City: A Romantic Dot Comedy,” a funny, energetic show about dating in the digital age. The six-week run at the Metropolis amounts to an out-of-town tryout for this show — a sendup of online dating — that premiered earlier this year in Arizona in a slightly altered form, under a slightly altered title. This incarnation will reportedly inaugurate Second City's newest stage which opens this fall at 4608 N. Wells St., Chicago.

Compactly directed by Northlight Theatre artistic director BJ Jones, who fashions what is essentially a series of sketches into a coherent narrative, the show boasts a talented, very likable quintet of Second City veterans.
Among them is Fred Willard (“WALL-E,” “Best in Show,” “Everybody Loves Raymond”), who appears via videotape as the spokesman for the fictional online dating site, iLove. Appearing live are Carisa Barreca, Jimmy Carlson, Shad Kunkle and Jeff Award winner Amanda Blake Davis. They take on multiple roles, including that of a commitment-averse man-child named Travis (Carlson) and his attractive, long-suffering, girlfriend Allie (Barreca), and a pair of nerdy, endlessly optimistic serial daters poignantly played by Kunkle and Davis.
The characters are stereotypical, yet these actors make us care about them. Kunkle and Davis in particular bring humanity and dignity to their characters. Kunkle plays the endearingly goofy Edrick — a Medieval Times employee who may be too accommodating for his own good. The terrific Davis plays Dorinda, a quirky charmer who goes on a lot of first dates but never gets invited on a second.
