The Second City’s 113th Mainstage Revue This Too Shall Slap is a wild sketch comedy show that spins the familiar into the absurd&#8230; and makes the absurd feel oddly familiar. Performed by a hilarious six-person ensemble who specialize in chaos, charm, and comedic whiplash, this show will keep you laughing, guessing, and possibly questioning your entire reality. Join us for a night where nothing is what it seems. Except the laughter. That’s real.  
Group of 16 or more? We’ll make it easy: <a href="https://www.secondcity.com/group-events" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Contact Us for Group Events</a>

Are you ready for some heist-jinks? SWIPED Improvised Thievery’s crew of comedic criminals perform a 55-minute improvised longform set that pays homage to the highs and lows of the heist genre. All we need to get started is a suggestion of what outrageously valuable thing you’d like us to steal and the heist begins. SWIPED features loving references and tropes from your favorite heist media. Before your eyes, we’ll meet our mastermind, build their crew, and see what dangerous obstacles they must overcome to walk away with the prize.
