&#8220;Brilliant. 4 stars&#8221; Guardian.

It&#8217;s the show New York Times calls &#8220;One of the Top 5 Comedies to See&#8221; and Lin-Manuel Miranda calls &#8220;cease and desist!&#8221;

Are you tired of the same-old holiday reruns? Then skip them and dash to The Second City to see our holiday hit Holidazed and Amused!

The Second City proudly continues its 65 year tradition of delivering innovative, fast-paced satirical comedy with this fresh take on festive fun. Stuffed with seasonal songs, sketches, and of course, a generous helping of our world-famous improv comedy, it’s a holiday show you can actually look forward to!

Holidazed and Amused

Every week, a brand-new sitcom is born — live, unscripted, and based entirely on your suggestions. Chicago’s finest improvisers bring you secret crushes, nosy neighbors, wild misunderstandings, and over-the-top schemes — all the classic sitcom chaos you love, made up on the spot. No scripts. No reruns. Just nonstop laughs!

Improvised Sitcom

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

Chicago’s top comedians battle it out for laughs, glory, and sweet sweet points in an interactive game show, featuring a live studio audience (that’s you!) Performers go head to head in a series of hilarious challenges inspired by classic game shows like The Dating Game and The Price is Right, and current hits like Game Changer and Taskmaster. Wheel of Improv will leave your head spinning &#8211; with laughter!

Wheel of Improv

It&#8217;s almost Thanksgiving, which means the stench of family is in the air! This improvised family reunion brings together seven eccentric and wacky characters all into one room for the holiday season.
How will they react when they get to see each other? What weird family traditions do they have? Will they be able to settle their differences and all come together for family dinner in the end? Come to Family Shatters this weekend to find out and watch the fireworks!

Family Shatters

Is it a game show or an uproarious, electively interactive live theatrical experience?
Why can’t it be both? HighQ is a high-larious blend of alternative comedy and spirited competition, in which three teams vie for a valuable prize package* by demonstrating both mental and physical acuity before a live studio audience.
Combining elements of sketch; variety; and improv with a classic game show vibe, HighQ is as fun to watch as it is to play, no matter how much – or how little &#8211; you think you may know about cannabis culture.

HighQ The Gameshow

Don’t miss this limited run of Jokesgiving. 
A joyful evening of camaraderie, stories, and spontaneous comedy. You bring the spark, and this close-knit troupe of nine friends spins it into a show of hilarious scenes, playful banter, and the kind of connection that only happens when friends are cracking each other up. It’s part comedy romp, part living-room hangout—and entirely one-of-a-kind.
This isn’t your average improv show—it’s fresh, fearless, and full of surprises. 
Five Sundays only.
