The Swellest is Chicago's hottest new musical improv!

During this 90(ish)-minute show, some of Chicago's brightest comics will improvise several short, brand-new original musicals on the spot - a biography, a horror show, and a couple more that are a BIG SURPRISE (to us too)!

The bar will be open, and we're giving free surprise snacks and stickers with every admission, so come prepared to sing along!

Please be advised:

The Newport Theater is up a flight of stairs with no elevator, but access to a Genesis portable mobile stairlift (rated up to 400 pounds) is available. Please email newporttheater@gmail.com in advance of your arrival to coordinate entry/operators/liability waivers.

There are four single-stall non-gendered restrooms available onsite.
