For splat, get a table in the middle. Blood everywhere on stage . Highly recommend this theatre ! Going back again ASAP. Make sure to also grab a board game of the shelf for fun .

Time Out Chicago

Annoyance put itself on the map with its famously distasteful gross-out musical Co-Ed Prison Sluts. Twenty years later, it still cranks out bizarre, unconventional comedy . Read more

Fantastic as a bar , even better as a two-theater aggressive comedy emporium. Come for the Clark Street views and draft brews, stay for the unknown.

Bruce Phillips

Hitch*Cocktails every Friday night on the main stage at 10:00pm!

Great spot to check out a non mainstream improv show.

Just saw Swear Jar (sketch comedy ) at this theater and it was great; this was my first time at Annoyance. Got some very cheap tickets on goldstar.com and I would definitely go to see it again. Read more

TNT (Tuesday Night Thing) is GREAT and cheap ! Worth a stop in. Drinks are good also.
