Do the Right Thing, No Worries If Not

Tuesdays-Thursdays at 8pm; Fridays - Saturdays at 7 and 10pm; Sundays at 7pm

The Second City is sorry not sorry for making you laugh with the 110th Mainstage revue, Do the Right Thing, No Worries If Not. Leave your worries at the door and come laugh yourself into euphoria at the things we have in common, navigating relationships, code-switching, and even high school on TV. Life is good and the multiverse is real in this interactive experience that has everything you want in a comedy show: Stage combat! Truth bombs! Very intrusive vibe checks! Do the right thing and don't miss this show.

Great Altercations

Thursdays at 8pm; Fridays-Saturdays at 7pm and 10pm; Sundays at 4pm

The Second City e.t.c. comes out swinging with another knock-out, interactive show! Great Altercations faces off against all the little reasons we come apart...and brings us back together with laughter, music and improv. From gas prices to podcasts, parenting to government, cryptocurrency to the Old West (-ern suburbs, that is), this show takes on the stuff we're really at odds about and finds the commonality that comes when we let down our guards and show up as our true selves. Avoid the need for revisionist history in your future, and don't miss this show while it's here in the present!

Best of The Second City: Chicago-Style

Thursdays-Saturdays at 8pm; Sundays at 7pm

The Best of The Second City: Chicago-Style features some of the best sketch comedy and songs from our comedy vaults that are about... you guessed it, Chicago. Will there be deep dish digs? Political puns? Cubs comedy? If it's about our very own Windy City, you can bet it's getting roasted by The Second City Touring Company.
