Second City Chicago

House ensembles

Conservatory graduates are invited to audition for our house ensembles. Performing with the house ensembles are an individual's best chance to be considered for employment by The Second City. Ensemble members begin with Twisty performing fully-improvised shows. Members are selected to continue with the groups Moxie and Next to create material for the staging of their own sketch comedy revue.
 
Auditions for the house ensembles are held periodically throughout the year. These auditions are only available to Conservatory graduates. Information will be updated here as it becomes available.
 
Graduates of the Music Improv program are encouraged to audition for the Music Improv House Ensemble Infinite Sundaes.
