Description of the show 🎟
Sunday Night Live is the creation and performance of a comedy play that only has one performance. Sunday Night Live creates improv fans and many people come back every week. Since each show is totally different, it is habit-forming!
In 1993 Boom Chicago brought improvisational theater to Amsterdam. Now, more than 25 years later, we are introducing the new long-form improvisation theater to the Dutch audience.
The sharp, talented Boom Chicago cast creates new scenes, stories and songs that are inspired by a monologue or a suggestion, while also inspiring each other.
We have a lot of fun on stage and when we make each other laugh, the audience laughs even harder. Sunday Night Live is the performance of a comedy play that will only be played once. The comedy unfolds before your eyes as the storylines connect together into a unique, surprising and funny story.
The Sunday vibe at Boom Chicago is different from the rest of the week. While a regular Boom Chicago show is played at a high tempo full of technological highlights, Sunday Night Live is nice and laid back. A perfect end to your weekend! Buy your tickets now and who knows, you might be the inspiration for our next SNL.
Please note this show takes place in our Upstairs Theater, which is not wheelchair accessible.
