Improvised Shakespeare Chicago

About this show

The Improvised Shakespeare Company® proudly presents its critically-acclaimed, long-running hit show Improvised Shakespeare Chicago now in it’s 20th year! Join us for an evening of off-the-ruff comedy featuring the language and themes of William Shakespeare. Inspired by one audience suggestion (a title for a play that has yet to be written) the dazzling players create a brand-new Shakespearean masterpiece right before your eyes. Nothing has been planned out, rehearsed, or written. The dialogue is said for the first time, the characters are created as you watch, and if ever you're wondering where the story is going...so are they! You've never seen the Bard like this before! “There’s really nothing quite like it in the city of Chicago. Smart, sophisticated, downright hilarious.” -TimeOut Chicago “…the show channels Monty Python as often as the Bard, and frequently with sly-witted results.” -The Chicago Tribune “Consistently Hilarious” -The Chicago Reader “Staggeringly Brilliant” -TimeOut Chicago “Consistently funny…'Tis v'ry, v'ry good.” -The Chicago Tribune “Indisputably great improv, fueled by smart plot development, stage chemistry and recognizable characters.” -Centerstage Chicago “In short, outstanding.” -TimeOut Chicago Find out more at improvisedshakespeare.com _________________________ Additional option to include Improvised Shakespeare's featured cocktail, Hamlet, with your ticket.
