In Short – Comedy fans will recognize the Second City name as the inspiration for "Saturday Night Live." It was comics from the tiny Chicago theater that helped launch the idea for the show. Second City alumni include Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner and Mike Myers. And many of today's talented troupe, looking to follow in those rather large footprints, have found success as well. Expect a show with sharp, witty off-the-cuff humor.
