Event

Compass Cabaret 55
Director Mark Siska constructs a behind-the-scenes chronicle of Chicago's improv theater history, highlighting the pioneering role of the Compass Players. This short-lived but essential cabaret troupe launched the careers of legends including Mike Nichols, Elaine May, Paul Sills, Del Close, Barbara Harris, and Byrne Piven, and became the model for Second City and SNL. Tales of brainstorms, breakthroughs, and personal rivalries are punctuated by priceless sequences of beloved Compass routines. A must-see for any theater or improv lover!
