"The Second City is that improv comedy troupe in Chicago that for years now has served as a training ground for  SNL  cast members. Tonight, some of Second City's comedy specialists will be on hand downtown at the Academy Center of the Arts (519 Commerce St.) for a Game Night gala that'll feature challenges like ""fill-in-the-blankety-blanks,"" charades, and some version of family feud. Of course, there will also be plenty of improv comedy. The event starts at 7:30 p.m., tickets are $35 for a riser, and $42 for a table. Call the Academy box office at (434) 846-8499 or visit their  website  for tickets and more info."
