Rooted in Hyde Park’s creative energy, The Revival Theater at 1160 E 55th Street celebrates Chicago’s comedy heritage just steps from where the Compass Players pioneered improv in the 1950s. The room is intimate and lively, with close-up sightlines that make quick wit, callbacks, and razor-sharp timing land even harder. It is a neighborhood gem that draws students, locals, and comedy lovers from across the city.
The calendar blends stand-up, long-form improv, musical comedy, sketch revues, and storytelling, plus special events and occasional festival nights. Expect ensembles riffing on current events, two-person showcases that build worlds in minutes, and character pieces that nod to Chicago’s smart, working-class humour. With clear sound and a welcoming staff, it is an easy place to discover rising comics and see seasoned acts test brand-new material.
