"Fans of Saturday Night Live are probably familiar with The Second City, the improv comedy school and venue that’s been churning out cast members for decades, among them John Belushi, Chris Farley, Amy Poehler, and Tina Fey. The list of comedic geniuses to have graced the stage at The Second City extends far beyond the SNL family, however, with celebrities like Steve Carrell and Stephen Colbert also featuring, so there’s a good chance you’ll see a future-famous performer if you drop by for a show (or, if you’re lucky, a famous alumni). There’s at least one show most nights of the week and often many to choose from, be it a headline or guest performance, student show or training-center performance, sketch-comedy show or stand-up session. Browse the calendar to see what’s on during your next Chicago trip." - MATADOR_NETWORK
