  5. Second City's first-rate legacy

    It was born of University of Chicago nerds at the end of McCarthyism, back when cutting-edge comedy meant jokes about your mother-in-law. It fed on the slow Chicago burn of 1960s counterculture, even though the demons of drugs and alcohol took down more than a few of its brilliant, misfit stars. It gave a tough Midwestern city its own colorfully indigenous, endlessly malleable art form -- satirical sketch-comedy, created through improvisation. After some 35 years  in the business, it deftly transformed itself into a shrewdly self-aware farm team for "Saturday Night Live" and the newly expansive world of television comedy, a market that the Second City itself helped create.

  19. The Second City's first show

    They were still tacking down the hall carpet when the doors opened on this evening for the first performance at The Second City. It all seemed so new and so tentative, even when the audience started applauding the fresh, smart comedy of the cabaret. As Bernard Sahlins, a co-founder, recalled years later, "We felt we were just opening a coffee shop, and maybe a little show too." What they were doing, however, was opening a new era in Chicago theater and releasing an amazing flow of talent that soon came to dominate American comedy.

  21. Movie review: 'Freaky Friday'

    Tribune movie critic
    2 stars (out of 4) Jamie Lee Curtis can still be a sensational, sexy comedian. And she proves it again in, of all movies, "Freaky Friday." The movie itself isn't much — at least without her. An uninspired remake of the 1977 Disney comedy — which had...
