The founders of iO Theater- Charna Halpern, Del Close, and David Shepard- were instrumental in the creation and development of long form improvisation.

They believed that simple theater games could be elevated to a new expressive artform, and by codifying and teaching these concepts, a new avant-garde style of theater, and comedy, was born in Chicago.

And iO Theater is still going strong with 4 stages that host live comedy five nights a week. And with multiple shows on each stage each night, that’s like 40 shows a week!

Improv, sketch, storytelling, musical improv, dance, stand up and more. 

These four ticket vouchers for an iO Theater performance will give you a glimpse of their brilliant improv style.
