A sketch is a short, scripted comedy scene. Think Key and Peele or SNL. Some people might call it a "skit," but we never do. Chicago is the home of modern sketch comedy, and today, you can experience it at all Second City locations.

This Too Shall Slap

Strap in and spiral out – The Second City’s 49th e.t.c. Revue takes sketch and improv comedy to brilliantly unhinged new heights. The Chaos Theory of Everything blends razor-sharp satire, audience interaction, and clever, character-driven comedy to explore how wildly connected (and deeply chaotic) it all really is. Smart, hilarious, and full of surprises, this is one laughter-filled ride you won’t want to miss.

The Chaos Theory of Everything

Planes, Trains, and ??? is a fast-paced, musical send-up of the ultimate holiday travel disaster — inspired by the John Hughes classic and packed with 80s bangers, big laughs, and a whole lot of heart. A cast of three brings the chaos to life: one plays Steve Martin, one plays John Candy, and one plays literally everyone else. With Second City’s signature improv and a soundtrack that’ll have you dancing in your seat, this is the perfect escape after too much stuffing and just enough family drama.

Planes, Trains and ???: The Unauthorized Improv and Musical Parody

Low Key Lit is a new comedy show at the world famous Second City, which will feature improv and stand up comedy acts each week. You can expect some of the biggest names in comedy, locally and nationally, to perform in this amazing show. This is more than a comedy show, it is an experience. An experience, you don&#8217;t want to miss.

Lowkey Lit Late Night

Thanksgiving Leftovers is a sketch comedy show that celebrates 
the beautiful mess of life&#8217;s sloppy seconds. Each week, Thanksgiving Leftovers serves up sketches about the overlooked, the undervalued, and the wonderfully imperfect. From the backup friend who shows up when plans fall through to the lonely bridge troll, Leftovers mines comedy from life&#8217;s consolation prizes.
This show is for anyone picked last in gym class, goes for the clearance rack first in a Ross Dress For Less, or understands that the dog is the best part of any apartment party. Our ensemble brings warmth and authenticity to a show that will leave you more fulfilled than an actual Thanksgiving dinner.
