de Maat Studio Theatre - Chicago

These non-Second City productions are original works created and produced by guest performers and ensembles. With limited runs, these performances allow for complete creative freedom and may feature artists of any experience level.

Guest Performance

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.

Sketch Comedy

This show is a mixture of performance genres. It could range from stand up, to sketch, to music, or anything in between.

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

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.
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.

The Best of The Second City: Chicago Style

Improv Bingo

Through audience feedback and suggestions improvisers will collaboratively build a world of unforgettable characters and messy relationship dynamics. Come witness the wildest improvised love stories that you never saw coming!

Love is Improvised

Veterans of Chicago&#8217;s best improv shows like Baby Wants Candy, Improvised Shakespeare Company, Hitch Cocktails and more bring you an hour of hilarious long form improv. Playing with inspiration from the Swinging 30s, these cool cats will have you in stitches with a small twist on the long form improv Chicago is famous for.
