NEW YORK Media Rights Capital and the Second City are partnering for an online comedy venture.

The project, dubbed “The Second City’s Quarantine,” will launch this year and feature original material from the improv troupe’s current roster and alumni network, which includes Tina Fey, Steve Carell and Bob Odenkirk.

MRC digital media president Dan Goodman said the talent involved in the project is being finalized and that the site should launch with six or seven “mini-shows.”

The venture would have a stand-alone site and also be syndicated through the Web.
