BRIEF: 'Based on a True Story' lineup includes Matt Walsh, Nora Dunn, Julia Sweeney

Nov. 09--Under the Gun Theater has announced the full lineup for "Based on a True Story," the Saturday night improvised show that draws inspiration from the monologue of a special guest.

SNL alums Nora Dunn (Nov. 21) and Julia Sweeney (Dec. 5) will share their stories, along with former ABC7 reporter Paul Meincke (Nov. 28), UCB founder and "Veep" star Matt Walsh (Dec. 12) and actor D.B. Sweeney (Dec. 19), who will appear as the mayor of Chicago in Spike Lee's forthcoming "Chi-Raq." Walsh will appear on a live video interview and replaces Peter Sagal, the previously announced guest for Dec. 19.

All performances take place at Under the Gun Theater, 956 W. Newport Ave.
