Famous for being a city of broad shoulders, Chicago has also
developed an international reputation for split sides and slapped
knees. Watch the "Chicago Style of Comedy" evolve from
nineteenth-century vaudeville, through the rebellious comics of the
50's, and into the improvisation and sketch that ushered in a new
millennium. Drawing on material both hilarious and profound,
Chicago Comedy: A Fairly Serious History touches on what makes
Chicago different from other cities and how that difference
produced some of the greatest minds comedy will ever know: Amos and
Andy, Jack Benny, Lenny Bruce, Del Close, John Belushi, Tina Fey,
Stephen Colbert and so many, many more.
