The iO Theater

"We hired them for a work event and the team did amazing. This was not easy as most of my crew had already been sitting in 2 day meetings. They were able to come in build up the energy and re-energize the team, gave them valuable skills to help succeed as leaders. Everyone had a great time and time passed quickly! Will hire again"

"I've been to the IO a few times now and I always have an amazing time. Incredible customer service. Wonderful shows. Good drinks. Maybe the food isn't the best but that's not what I'm here for. I have a great time. It's affordable, fun, and it makes me keep coming back! A+"

"I much prefer iO to Second City and this visit was no exception! We got there early to get some drinks, then ordered food when we got to the theater. I was shocked they had so many good vegetarian options. I got the vegan Chicago hotdog. Came with fries, great portion size and delicious. Show was amazing and really affordable!"

"Home to some of the best improv in Chicago. Multiple stages with multiple teams playing all night. We saw the improv Shakespeare and it was phenomenal. They serve drinks and food as well at abnormally reasonable prices!"

"First timer. We went for the Improvised Shakespeare show, and it was so good. All five performers were amazing - great timing and so hilarious. We had a great time. The food at the restaurant is decent and the drinks are good too. We were also able to get parking close-by. Will definitely come back."
