"We are not stand-up comedians. Our show is not a passive, sit-back-and-watch experience. Most of the fun we have on stage comes from our inclusion of the audience – we get suggestions from them to begin each scene we perform, and in certain instances, bring them on-stage with us to add to our performance. It's less a ‘show’ and more a party. At least it feels like one to me. This group of actors brings me right back to how I started out in comedy – maybe that's why we have so much fun doing it." – Jim Belushi

With more than thirty years of experience and an alumnus of “Saturday Night Live” and Chicago’s famed Second City, JIM BELUSHI is now bringing to the stage an improvised comedy sketch show featuring members of the Board of Comedy.

Belushi starred on the ABC hit comedy "According to Jim,” on which he also served as executive producer, music composer and director. After wrapping 182 episodes for its eighth and final season, the family favorite series also hit a milestone when it launched into off-net syndication in 2007. A favorite of film, television and stage audiences, Belushi is one of the great leading character actors equally at home in drama and comedy, and a gifted performer who can also hold a room as front man of a rhythm and blues band. Accompanying Belushi are Megan Grano, Larry Joe Campbell, Brad Morris, and Joshua Funk*, all of whom are classically trained professional improvisers who tour regularly nationwide.

We had a great time. What a great bunch of talented funny people.
Ya never know what you’ll get when you go to a improvisational comedy show. But what we got was a great time with great entertainment! Highly recommend seeing this comedy tour. You won’t regret it!
The show and performers were good and lived up to our expectations. However the Andiamo Showroom was less than desirable accommodations. Seating is by the table number so the chairs are "first come first serve". They cram 10 people per table which isn't a normal width table, very narrow. And on top of that the tables literally had NO room in between them to get in or out of your seat. It was very uncomfortable "sardine can style" seating. I will not go back to a venue there unless the seating is different.
We loved the show! Jim and the entire comedy team were awesome! The improv was fantastic! Jim asked my husband and I questions and like other audience members our life was used in the skits. It was hilarious what the comedians did with the bits of information provided by the audience. We did not stop laughing and would highly recommend this show.
First time I have ever attended a stand-up comedy show. I was excited to see Jim Belushi. The part where he started and worked with the audience was really funny. Then he brought on his crew, and while they were entertaining, I did not go there to see a group. Also, he needs to update his photo on the ad for the show - he is no longer 40 years old, and I almost did not recognize him when he came on the stage. I guess that is why no photos of any kind are allowed. I would give the show a 5 out of 10. The venue is small, but gives all guests a good view of the stage. No bad seats, and there was a bar for those who wished to partake of refreshments.
This was an improv show. Jim started by playing harmonica & telling a couple old jokes. Went downhill from there.
Great show. Interacted with the audience. Had an amazing time!
The talent was pretty good. The group came up with some amazing material. I thought maybe they could have had a warm up comedian to start the show and maybe make it last more than an hour and a half. All in all, it was fun.
When it comes to music I love improvisation, comedy, not so much. I was disappointed because I was hoping for Jim to do an actual standup routine. The first half hour of the show was great but then they switched to improvisation. I personally, have a hard time watching the players improvise. I can feel the tension, the struggle to find the jokes, and it makes for an un-enjoyable time. Some people love it, just not me.
Disgusting. Cashing in on his name and had to curse every 5 seconds to be 'Funny" and get through the show. We Don't care about your divorce Jim, we paid to see a comedy show!
