Party Earth Review: Boom Chicago is a comedy dinner theater where fifty percent of the show is improvised, one hundred percent is hilarious, and patrons are guaranteed to laugh out loud for the entire two-hour performance.

The good times keep rolling even after the show, when the bar area hosts a number of events from club nights to beer pong to pub quizzes. While Boom Chicago does attract its share of tourists, the shows and the signature frozen margaritas are well worth the time. ... read full review |

Boom Chicago Review
Tip from Emma:
“Awesome show! Call or go online to book a seat in advance, or stop by the theater to see if you can get a deal. Take your creativity to the show with you – you’ll be rewarded with free beer if the performers use your suggestions! And if you save your ticket stub, you can go back the next night for only €5.”
