Richard Scruggs talks to us about Mary.
Second City instructor and writing program head Mary Scruggs died on January 11, 2011 at the age of 46.
In addition to her role at Second City, Scruggs has had writing, acting and producing roles. Her solo show, "Missing Man," opened at Live Bait Theater in Chicago before travelling to the New York Fringe Festival, the LA Women’s Theater Festival, and the Sherry Theater in Los Angeles.
Scruggs and Susan Messing adapted Judy Blume's work for the show "What Every Girl Should Know." She created a series of children's plays for the Cook County Court called "The Fairy Trials," which have been in production since 1986. Scruggs has also co-authored two books: "Process: An Improviser’s Journey" with Michael J. Gellman and "The Second City Guide to Improvisation in the Classroom" with Katherine S. McKnight.
