The Improvised Shakespeare Company®
With nothing more than a title shouted from the audience, The Improvised Shakespeare Company creates an entire play on the fly—comedy, tragedy, or history in the Shakespearean mold, all of it delivered in the “thee” and “thou” English of the Bard. Nothing is planned, nothing is rehearsed, and each play is completely new. The LA-based troupe got its start in Chicago and has performed everywhere from Bonnaroo to Montreal’s Just for Laughs to local comedy spot Largo at the Coronet. See the show TimeOut Chicago calls “staggeringly brilliant” and “downright hilarious!” You’ve never seen Shakespeare like this before.
