Cook County Social Club

Thumb_ccsc

This veteran foursome has been dominating the Chicago improv scene with a brand of bold, high energy improv that is guaranteed to blow you away. Varying speeds like an elite racing car this finely tuned machine seems to raise the bar just about every time they take the stage.

Starring: Greg Hess, Mark Raterman, Brendan Jennings, Bill Cochran, Tim Robinson

"COOK COUNTY SOCIAL CLUB are as brazenly committed to improv’s ‘affirm everything’ mantra as any I’ve seen. Their dark, flamboyant comic sensibilities clearly aligned, they orchestrate black-comedy vignettes tethered to richly odd characters. But what most impressed me was how fluidly they transformed between scenes, usually dangerous improv moments." - Chicago Reader

"Dream team." - Chicago Magazine

""Critics Pick" Some of the flat-out funniest moments we've ever seen in an improv show come from this fantastic four. Uncanny onstage chemistry and a roster of sharp improvisers well versed in balancing grounded scenework and uncensored play…" - TimeOut Chicago
