'CLUED-IN' Opens 1/30 at The Beat Lounge

In January of 2016, Piper's Alley, the home of chicago's most famous sketch and improv shows, will be opening two NEW comedy theaters; The Beat Lounge and The Blackout Cabaret. These new venues will be a place for young talent to create humorous productions that are experimental, innovative and hilarious. One such show is an improv performance that is so challenging...it's murder.

Clued In: An Improvised Murder Mystery is one act long form show that aims to deliver the intrigue of Agatha Christie with the skills of Chicago improvisers. It will debut with an early look at The Beat Lounge on Saturday Jan. 30, 2016. 9:00 PM at 230 W North Ave, Chicago, IL 60610. The show will then have a run at The Beat Lounge from Feb 13th-Feb 27 at 10:30 PM. Tickets are $13 ($11 for students, and $7 for Second City Training Center students).

After getting a single suggestion from the audience, a cast of six professional comedians will create a tale of crime, secrets and scandals right before your eyes...but watch closely, the performers will keep tract of facts, follow leads and come to a conclusion unlike any comedy experience you've seen before.

Clued In: An Improvised Murder Mystery is from the creators of Hitch*Cocktails, the long-running improvised thriller that has been running for four years at the Annoyance Theater. The new Piper's alley theater allows the performers to expand their brand of intelligent, witty comedy to a new venue. The cast includes C.J.
