Chicago

What if your favorite movie was set in Chicago?
Flicks like Jaws, Titanic, and Trolls World Tour are deserving of sequels in The Second City, and we need your help to build the script. Come and enjoy a night out where we improvise a movie sequel of your choosing! From dramas to rom-coms, we are open to all, so you never know what might happen next. The retelling and reimaging of your favorite characters from the cinema will happen live, leaving you to wonder if movie sequels really should exist. Take the night off to enjoy the next big summer blockbuster where, of course, there will be previews.

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>

This Too Shall Slap

Go All-In on longform improv with host team Lavalier. Six teams play for a chance to win completely worthless prizes awarded by our esteemed panel of improv judges, followed by a performance by the judges themselves. Seven teams, six weeks, two hours of hilarious improv comedy. Nothing has been scripted or prepared in advance. It will all be made up before your very eyes!
