I.O.
The I.O., or I.O. Chicago, (formerly known as "ImprovOlympic") is a theater at 3541 N.
Clark Street
in the
Wrigleyville
neighborhood of
Chicago, Illinois
dedicated to
improvisational comedy
. It was founded in the
1980s
by
Del Close
and
Charna Halpern
. The I.O. approaches improvisation as an art form in and of itself; this differs from the
Second City
approach, where improv is used as a tool in creating sketch comedy. I.O. also concentrates on "long-form" improvisational structures, in contrast to the "short-form" or "improv game" format of
Theatresports
or the television show
Whose Line Is It Anyway?
. The I.O. signature piece is "
Harold
".
