Second City Works

Drawing on The Second City’s 55-year legacy of engaging audiences with smart, incisive comedy, Second City Works has evolved from its early days in corporate entertainment to become a leading innovator in professional development, marketing services and event support. The company focuses on four practice areas: sales effectiveness, talent & leadership development, legal & compliance and marketing & content.

The Second City has been performing comedy in front of audiences for 50 years, making us the standard by which comedy and improv in America is judged. So much talent has come from the ranks of our company’s many theaters over the years that it reads like a who’s who of contemporary American comedy. Some of our most well known alumni are John Belushi, Gilda Radner, Dan Aykroyd, John Candy, Mike Myers, Chris Farley, Tina Fey, Rachel Dratch, Steve Carell and Stephen Colbert, to name a few.
