The Second City’s 113th Mainstage Revue This Too Shall Slap is a wild sketch comedy show that spins the familiar into the absurd…and makes the absurd feel oddly familiar. Performed by a hilarious six-person ensemble who specialize in chaos, charm, and comedic whiplash, this show will keep you laughing, guessing, and possibly questioning your entire reality. Join us for a night where nothing is what it seems. Except the laughter. That’s real.
