ANNALS OF LEFTIST AUTOPHAGY: Second City Theater CEO Denounces Self, Steps Down.
Andrew Alexander, the CEO and co-owner of famed The Second City improv theater, said he is stepping down after a former performer leveled accusations of racism against the comedy institution.
In a lengthy letter posted on the company’s website, Alexander said he “failed to create an anti-racist environment wherein artists of color might thrive. I am so deeply and inexpressibly sorry,”
He vowed Friday that he will be replaced by a person of color.
Might as well quit. Humor is no longer allowed anyway.
