We went to Second City for a birthday celebration. We laughed so hard our stomachs hurt, and we were still laughing long after we got home. The act was fresh, fast paced, and creative. There was never a real lull, and we were in awe of how quickly these artists think on their feet! Well done!

The other current Second City shows(1% and Tour Guide) were a lot funnier than this show, although the cast was very talented and energetic. A few of the newer skits seemed to rely on getting laughs from tossing out various references to genitalia from time to time. Not a good show to bring your mom or kids to!

It was a very fun and funny show. A great mix of one liner skits to longer sketches and improv. Cast and venue were great! Was my first second city show and couldn't have asked for a better one!
