The Improvised Shakespeare Company

Prepare for a night of laughter, wit, and Elizabethan absurdity with The Improvised Shakespeare Company®, the world-renowned troupe that transforms a single audience suggestion into a fully improvised Shakespearean play—right before your eyes! These master improvisers conjure up original dialogue, wild characters, and unpredictable plots, creating a spontaneous comedy that’s as brilliant as it is hilarious.

• Unscripted Genius: Every show is a one-of-a-kind Shakespearean masterpiece, made up on the spot based on your title suggestion—no two performances are ever the same!
• Critically Acclaimed: Hailed as “Staggeringly Brilliant” and “Downright Hilarious” (TimeOut Chicago), and “Mad Genius” (LA Times), ISC has played to sold-out crowds at the Kennedy Center, Bonnaroo, Just For Laughs, and more.
• Rock-Star Energy: From their Chicago roots to regular shows in LA and NYC, ISC’s performances are packed with the energy of a rock concert and the cleverness of Shakespeare’s greatest works, making them a must-see for comedy and theater lovers alike.

Don’t miss your chance to see the Bard as you’ve never seen him before—improvised, uproarious, and utterly unforgettable!
