Solo Sunday Presents "My Dad, His Chimp, and a Serial Killer" By Jonathan Pitts

Please join us for this special, intimate performance at one of the city's legendary Irish pubs. 


My Dad, His Chimp, and Serial Killer
By Jonathan Pitts


This riveting one-man show is based on a real-life incident that happened in 1964 when Pitts' dad, David Pitts, was traveling across America in a van with Spanky, his ice-skating chimp, going from LA to Duluth for Ice Capades rehearsals. Outside of Las Vegas, Pitts picked up a hitchhiker -- a serial killer who kidnapped Pitts and Spanky for 3 days. This unique show weaves between absurd comedy and horror and is an exploration of America and its relationship with celebrities, chimps, violence, and wide-open spaces.


Jonathan Pitts is an award-winning international improviser, coach, director, producer, and storyteller. He's performed and/or taught in 27 countries and over 100 cities. He's created 3 devised improvised theatre productions, "Storybox"; "The Oracle" and "The Silent Movie" that have been performed globally. He's done live storytelling since 2002. He's the former Founder & Executive Director of Chicago Improv Productions; Co-Founder & Producer of Chicago Improv Festival; Creator & Producer of College Improv Tournament. 3 times New City named him a "Top 50" Chicago theatre player. He taught at The Second City, and for 7 years he was Around The Coyote's theatre/performance curator. Currently he can be heard as the narrator of the feature film, "He Went That Way" (with Jacob Elordi & Zachary Quinto), which is a different take on the same events his one-man show is based on.
