We are most proud of our mainstage shows which feature smart topical scenes, hysterical stand up and our famous improvisation comedy. There are monthly theme nights, and plenty of visiting comedians from all around the world. At Boom Chicago, there are fantastic shows almost every night, with only the occasional stinker. And damn, now the backspace button doesn’t work.
We also teach improvisation! The Boom Chicago Academy has almost 250 active students which makes an exciting Amsterdam comedy community. New Intro to Improv classes start five times a year and we offer improv taser classes almost every week for only €25.
