<p>The Second City’s 113th Mainstage Revue <em>This Too Shall Slap</em> 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.<strong>  </strong></p>

Ten Dollar Comedy

<p>Strap in and spiral out – The Second City’s 49th e.t.c. Revue takes sketch and improv comedy to brilliantly unhinged new heights. <em>The Chaos Theory of Everything </em>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.</p>

The Chaos Theory of Everything

<p>The Best of The Second City: Chicago-Style is a laugh-out-loud love letter to the Windy City. Featuring fan-favorite scenes from our archives—written by legendary alumni like Tina Fey, Bill Murray, Catherine O’Hara, Keegan-Michael Key, Stephen Colbert, and more—plus brand-new original material created just for this show. These hilarious songs, unforgettable characters, and iconic sketches are reimagined and brought to life by a ridiculously funny cast of live comedy pros.</p>
<p>Whether you&#8217;re visiting Chicago or born and raised in Wrigleyville (our deepest condolences), this show is your comedic cheat sheet to all things Chicago.</p>
