Went to The Second City for the 10pm show This Too Shall Slap and it was absolutely hilarious. From start to finish, the show was sharp, fast, and laugh-out-loud funny. We had great seats and the staff made sure we were well taken care of the entire night.
The cast was on point, the energy was high, and the timing was perfect—exactly what you want from a late show. Would 100% recommend and will definitely be back again. A Chicago classic for a reason. 👏🎭

Great show as always – laughed the entire time! Service at the seats was on point and didn’t impede on the show. We showed up early and got great 2nd row seats, and I really appreciate they allowed us to sit without 2 of our party there yet.

Second City is always a good time. The history of this venue and the famous people who have come from it only adds to the positive vibe. Food prices are about what you would expect for downtown and be prepared to sit real close to the person next to you. It is a small theater and they pack you in very tight, but the show is so good you don't mind. Plenty of parking with a parking garage attached to Second City. Usually cost between $26 to $50 for parking. Depends on the night and how long you stay after the show.
