You've never seen the Bard like this before!
Based on one audience suggestion (a title of a show that has never been written), The Improvised Shakespeare Company® creates a brand new, fully improvised Shakesperean masterpiece right before your eyes. Nothing has been planned out, rehearsed, or written. All of the dialogue is said for the first time, the characters are created as you watch, and if you're ever wondering where the story is going...so are they!
The Improvised Shakespeare Company® is one of the most critically-acclaimed improv troupes in the world. It was founded in Chicago in 2005 where its hit show, Improvised Shakespeare Chicago℠ still runs today. The ISC performs regularly at Largo in Los Angeles and has been featured at the Kennedy Center, 92nd St Y, Bonnaroo, San Francisco Sketchfest, Bumbershoot Music and Arts Festival, Sun Valley Writers' Conference, and the Just For Laughs festival in Montreal and Chicago. ISC guest performers have included Jason Alexander, Bradley Whitford, Helen Hunt, and Sir Patrick Stewart who also presented the troupe at the Soho Theatre in London. The ISC has been names Chicago's best improv group by both the Chicago Reader and the Chicago Examiner and has received numerous awards in LA, New York, Chicago, and more.
