From Second City: "We unfortunately cannot easily accommodate requests for a certain time slot. The slots are assigned in order that they are received. The audition is completely improvised and will last about 45 minutes which includes the time you are asked to check in. ex: a 10AM group audition ­ has a call time to check in at 9:45AM (15 minutes prior to the audition).

We thank you for your interest and will be rooting for you on audition day!"

From Magnet: Finally a great excuse to squeeze nine improvisers into a Zipcar and drive to Chicago in March!  Break a leg, everyone!
