UNDER YOUR SKIN.
ONE WOMEN SHOW featuring Jackie Smook
Joseph Chimes playing Piano
UNDER YOUR SKIN is a solo show written by Jackie Smook and Jackson Zinn'rowthorn featuring Opera and Jazz selections from the ages. The time she worked as a medical assistant during her summer vacation was a job she never expected. She had no prior training and this, of course, caused utter chaos to ensue. This is a comedic telling, in real time, of her experience told through Standup, multiple original characters and classical music. Its comedy...so we all know it takes a turn. It’s opera, it’s Standup, it's basically a character showcase. You're confused? Come see for yourself.
This show was geared up to premier at Second City after it performed its first preview at Davenport's Piano Bar back in January just before the pandemic. After a slew of rewriting and revamping, it's a must see and better than ever.
Jackie Smook is a singer, actor, comedian and writer based in Chicago. She is formally taking classes at The Second City and iO. Before the pandemic, Jackie performed her first ever cabaret in Chicago. Her recent credits include a Kellogg’s TownHouse Commercial, At the Garden, a TV show and is currently working on a screenplay called Broadway School. She is a graduate of Boston Conservatory with a degree in Musical Theater. With many new projects on the horizon, Jackie is so pleased to showcase one of the most passionate sides of herself through cabaret. She is currently represented.
