Description
Expats from the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre (along with folks from ImprovOlympic, Second City and SNL) started their rival operation in 2002. The PIT shares the UCB’s commitment to Chicago-style improv and raw sketch comedy, though there’s quite a bit of cross-pollination among the performers.
