Sid Caesar Has Passed Away

Sid Caesar, Coach Calhoun from Grease 2, has passed away at 91.

A moment of silence as we mourn our very own Coach Calhoun. Sid Caesar has passed away today at the age of 91.

As one of TV’s first stars from the golden era of television, Tony winner Sid Caesar was a master of improvisation and a true comedy legend. Sid starred on the live 90-minute comedy-variety production “Your Show of Shows” on NBC. He was a great inspiration of comedy writers and comedians over many generations. Thank you for making us laugh sir. Rest in peace.
