ABOUT THIS EPISODE
It’s hard to understate how much Chicago means to Eric Stonestreet. It’s where he got his start after college at Kansas State, and where he built the foundation of his acting career. Eric shares stories of how he went from sociology to stage, the importance of improv in his career, and his two critical years at the IO Theater and Second City. He covers his early days in Boys Town, his favorite SNL actor, his iconic role on ‘Modern Family,’ and the pitfalls of playing a gay character as a straight man. What’s obvious throughout, is his love for Chicago.
