- Long-time friends Molly McKasson and Susan Claassen have each created lasting legacies in Tucson, and next week they are reviving their sketch comedy act “Mols & Suz” for one night only at the Invisible Theatre. They are even using some of the original scripts they wrote in 1975, which cover political and social issues that are just as relevant today in 2024.
