We enjoyed the first show so much we rearranged our schedule so we could catch a second performance! Incredible job with wheelchair accessibility! You can buy ADA tickets online in any price bracket. With the tickets I reserved ahead of our trip, Second City reached out to me to inquire about how they could accommodate my needs. I've never had this happen before and the bar has now been set high for what excellence in inclusive customer service looks and feels like. The second round of tickets were ordered with a much shorter turn around time (less than 24 hours), so they did not reach out a second time and I completely understand why under the circumstances. Staff at both shows were incredibly helpful when it came to locating elevators and bathrooms, moving chairs, and making sure my husband and I were seated where we could see. Bathrooms had a handicap accessible stall.

My family had a great experience at the Second City Main Stage. We saw the show The Devil is in the Detours and we really enjoyed it. The cast was great! After the second act they announced to the audience that if we wanted to stay they would be back for an additional act, so of course we stayed. After a brief intermission they returned and presented the audience with another round of improvisation, which we are assuming was new material that they wanted to test. This was a fun night out and we would highly recommend this experience to others.

Wow! This place is still fantastic. I have not been here since 1976. The sketches are still really funny, well structured and engaging. the audience involve element is just right. the wait staff is good at keeping your glass filled without being intrusive. This is still must do in Chicago.

Hands down the best show in Chicago. No trip to Chicago is not complete without a show at The Second City. We saw The Devil in the Detours (10pm show) and former 2nd City alum and SNL alum Chris Kattan, joined the cast for the 3rd act. I never laughed so much, than I did during this show. My family had a great time. And 2nd City serves Old Style beer. Chicago's #1 beer.

My Husband has always wanted to see a show at The Second City & since we were in Chicago, looked up tickets online & we actually managed to get two tickets for the same day before they sold out. The improv/show was super fun, with a lot of laughter. It was the last show for one of the comedians/actors, and the crew put on an "extra" show to celebrate her achievements, which was definitely a highlight.

This was a truly outstanding experience and the highlight of our trip to Chicago. The cast was so talented (we saw “The Devil is in the Detours”) and we were excited being there knowing about the venue’s history with SNL. We thoroughly enjoyed the show. Service was great also. They do serve normal food which we didn’t realize, so FYI that you have that option. Oh, and their website suggests that you being a jacket and I do agree there. It gets chilly. All in all, a must do in Chicago.

Great comedy! We saw The Devil's in the Detours and it was a lively combo of sketches. I understand they don't do this every night, but we were there on a Sunday and they added a bonus improv set which was marvelously chaotic. No regrets on purchasing a Value ticket. We were in the back at the mainstage but it's a fairly small theatre and we could see just fine. We arrived 30 minutes early and got food and drinks before the show. The food is burgers/fries type stuff and it's solidly OK, same goes for the cocktail my date had. The craft beer was actually pretty nice.

Second City is a Chicago icon that’s simply a must-see! The talent and energy here are unmatched, with sharp, hilarious performances that keep the audience laughing non-stop. The blend of improv and sketch comedy is brilliant, showcasing top-notch comedic timing and creativity. This historic venue has launched the careers of countless comedy legends, and it’s easy to see why. An unforgettable experience for anyone visiting Chicago—don’t miss it!

This was suggested by one of our group, and it was excellent. I don't much watch TV, but I am aware of at least a bit of popular culture; I know that people like Gilda Radnor and Bill Murray got their start at Second City. My expectations were low. I was blown away, the evening was amazing! Five performers, doing "the best of Second City" and I laughed for two hours. Those guys (three males, two females) were GOOD. Food is served, you're not going there to eat, but if you do, remember, you're there for the show, not the food. Our server managed to pour a pint of beer on one of our group, the lady on the aisle. Made HER evening less enjoyable. They were out of Brats, so my friend had Chicago Dog (meh) and I had an Italian Beef (don't bother, at least at Second City) but the Korean Fried Chicken was good. Go for the COMEDY!

We went to second city for the laughs, but we ended up staying for the outstanding service from our waiter, Nick. His attention to detail, attentiveness, and overall aura made me feel like second city was my second home. I under tipped him by accident and I am now writing this review to make myself feel better… please tip him more to make up for my mistake. Thank you Nick, keep serving :p
