ABOUT THE DEL CLOSE MARATHON

Del Close was the driving force behind improvisational comedy in Chicago for over 30 years, influencing Bill Murray, Tina Fey, Mike Myers, John Belushi, Chris Farley, and the Upright Citizens Brigade, to name a few. After Del’s passing in 1999, the UCB started the Del Close Marathon to celebrate their mentor and keep alive his name and teachings for future generations.

From Friday afternoon on June 23 to after midnight on Sunday June 25, groups from New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Boston, Washington DC, Austin, Toronto, London, Helsinki, and more will perform improv non-stop at the UCB Theatre and six other stages around New York City in the biggest improv event of the year honoring the legacy of Del Close.
