Chicago, Illinois
Improv and comedy theater with a bar, home of Baby Wine.
The Annoyance Theatre is an improv, sketch, and comedy theater with a full bar in East Lakeview, running for more than 35 years. It hosts multiple shows a night across several stages, including the weekly LGBTQ+ variety show Baby Wine and the open-mic Ya'll Mic. The programming is loose and irreverent — long-form improv, original musicals, and late-night experiments — with the bar open through showtimes.
