Chicago City Limits by the Rialto Theater

Do You Suffer From Wikiphobia? The Rialto Theater has the Cure!

The Rialto Theater is proud to present the hilarious comedy and improvisation of Chicago City Limits.

Wacky and laugh out loud funny, Chicago City Limits is New York City’s legendary improve comedy show. Founded in Chicago in 1955 by actors participating in the Second City workshops, the group relocated to New York in 1980. Their show combines sketch comedy, musical theater and audience-inspired improvisations. A majority of the show is created on the spot from audience suggestions so each performance is unique.

 In Loveland, Chicago City Limits will present its comedy revue, Wikiphobia. The internet is slowly seeping into every corner of our lives and transforming the world as we know it: “Google” is no longer just a number; “Friend” is no longer just a noun; and user-generated virtual facts are as good as actual, factual facts. In Wikiphobia, the cast surfs the web at high-speed, taking issue with the issues and finding comedic links between the biggest stories in the news. Whether it’s global warming or global blogging, networking of Netflix, international affairs or interpersonal ones, Chicago City Limits delivers an evening of fast-paced, high-energy comedy.
