“My passion for soccer first developed at Boom Chicago to nurture and develop Ted Lasso’s concept and characters… Saskia Maas has been a mentor to me.”
“Boom Chicago has prepared me for literally every job I’ve had since. People call it “comedy boot-camp” and it really is. Once you get Dutch audiences to laugh and like you, you can do anything.”
“Boom Chicago is where you discover who you really are, and then you’re appreciated and supported. Ted Lasso would not exist if Andrew and Pep hadn’t gotten high at Rookies and decided to move to Amsterdam.”
“Every table read on Superstore, I didn’t need to read the script in advance; I knew I could bring it alive from what we learned improvising at Boom Chicago. It was my dream to write and work on television in comedy. That’s all I wanted to do. …It was without a doubt impossible without Boom Chicago.”
“I was so happy at Boom Chicago and I loved the work I did there… If you have the chance to audition for Boom Chicago, or if they offer you a slot on their stage, take the opportunity. It will change your life.”
“It was like the best dream come true ever. Boom is my heart, and this is my family forever: You know it’s a good place when everybody still wants to work with each other 20 years later.”
“I love the lifetime friendships, hours of laughs, and triumphant shows… Boom attracts such a smart audience.”
“The first time I walked out onto the set of MADtv, I couldn’t have been more ready and confident because I’d opened for thousands of people at the Lowlands Festival with Boom. Boom gives you the confidence to stand in front of a crowd and get them psyched up and ready.”

Amazing show! We went to Improv Spectacular. We were not sure what to expect, but we were not disappointed! The show and comedians were very entertaining and funny. We had a good amount of laughs that night. We will be back for sure.
– Anastasia R., Google reviewWe recommend Boom Chicago to anyone who enjoys almost peeing their pants because of laughter. Some audience members became a part of the show, but the comedians had a great sense for people who wouldn’t want to be chosen.
– David S., Google reviewSuch a great team of witty, relevant and absolutely hilarious comedians! It is our first night in Amsterdam and wow what a way to kick off the weekend! If you get a chance to stay behind to watch the after-the-after show, do! I can’t recommend this enough!
– Tom, Google reviewMy first time watching live improv (I have not enjoyed watching on television), and Boom Chicago was wonderfully funny. This was also the first time for my guests. They had no interest in any type of comedy but they even plan to go again!
– Flo G., Tripadvisor reviewThe cast used the audience for unique material but did not pick on anyone for jokes. We ordered some pulled chicken nachos and they were delicious!! I would highly recommend it! We will definitely return to see another show next time.
