Lateral Move sketch comedy

Pull up your seat and get ready to move your minds! Lateral Move bursts forth with hilarious takes on modern society. We showcase topical subjects with sketches that contain broader ideas people face in our time and veer into the absurd and silly because we just love comedy. Our show draws on the strengths of our diverse cast, providing distinctive viewpoints created from unique voices. From political satire to zany character pieces, this show proves to be more than a lateral move.

The Second City New York Blackbox Theater

Guest Performance,
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.
Sketch Comedy
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.
