ComedySportz is a long-running, short-form improv comedy show in Chicago.

A referee keeps track of the score on the “Applause-o-meter” and the team with the most laughs wins at the end of the show.

The improv cast includes: Empress Christian, Jack Cunningham, Andrew Goldbranson, Grace Govostis, Courtney Irwin, Joe Kluge, Eric Kopicki, Jimmy Ladd, Miranda Lowery, Amelia Manley, Alex Miret, Malina Novelle, Kayla O’Donnell, Abby Overmann, David Petrak, Bobby Smid, Emma Webster and Kellianne Yhip. Diana Juarez, Lizzie O’Neill and Liz Tinnin are the stage managers. Kenny Impastato is the light operator and Carlos Lopez is the sound operator. Hinsdale South English Teacher Danny Yuska is the Theater Director and Keith Whipple is an instructor at ComedySportz.
