Chicago City Limits has been called "hysterical and unpredictable" by the New York Times. Its method of improvisation, defined as "comedy without a net" by ensemble director Paul Zuckerman, offers a unique experience at each performance.

Founded in Chicago in 1977, the show relocated to New York two years later, established its own theatre and has had a continuous run of more than 8,500 performances. It is now New York City�s longest running show.

The national touring production has performed at Lincoln Center, the Smithsonian Institution, Super Bowl and at colleges and regional theaters across North America and Europe. Featured in its own TV news comedy series, "Reel News," Chicago City Limits has made several television appearances, has been featured on HBO, CNN and CNBC and has included guest artists Paul Reiser, Robin Williams and Brett Butler.
