ImprovOlympic
 
The students of this well-known improv comedy school formed by Del Close and Charna Halpern perform around the city in venues (including their own) every night under many guises. Their most famous extended conceptual improv, Harold, still runs periodically at their home, across the street from Wrigley Field. Their many famous alumni include Mike Myers, Chris Farley, Tim Meadows, Adam McKay, David Koechner, Andy Dick, Pat Finn, Andy Richter, Brian McCann, Bill Chott, and the Upright Citizens Brigade.

See: ImprovOlympic Turns 15 and and Centerstage's review of their 15th birthday party (Charnapalooza).
