This isn't improv, but you must must must go see the Neo Futurists' Too Much Light Makes the Baby Go Blind.

go early, it almost always sells out.

tj and dave, absolutely yes. tuesday night, the reckoning is usually quite good. but if you have to see one show, make it tj and dave, or chicagoland at annoyance on tuesday. it's tj and dave plus other great people.

enjoy the weather, sucker.

thanks for the tips, folks. Since my family has never seen me perform, I can at least show them what improv is like, and see some good shows. As for the weather, I like to get a taste of that winter just to remind me why I moved down here.

The last show I saw before I left Chicago a few months ago was Baby Wants Candy. It was basically a rock opera and it was really really sweet.
They call me Dollar Bill 'cause I always make sense.
