More information on The Second City Detroit

The famed Second City comedy empire started in Chicago and Toronto and spawned major stars such as Bill Murray and Mike Myers. In 1993, the Second City partnered with Mike Ilitch to open a third venue in Detroit, in the new Theatre District where Ilitch holdings rule. Like the other clubs, Detroit's Second City features local talent and topics, is a training ground and workshop for young comics and leans heavily on improvisation. Mainstage shows in the 350-seat theater run Thursdays through Sundays, with other improv shows on Wednesdays and occasional mini-shows in the Hockeytown Cafe, downstairs in the same building.
