Valentine's Day Comedy Options
Need some Valentine's Day comedy suggestions? Coming right up. First, there's a "special comedy/sexy-love time Valentine's Day event" hosted by Think Tank at the Apollo Theater (2540 N. Lincoln Avenue). Show up at 7:00 p.m. with $8 for a complimentary wine tasting before the 8:00 show, which features dynamic female duo the Puterbaugh Sisters, Fred Thunder, and Think Tank themselves. It's not just a show, it's a party!
You may have missed Edge's Comedy's "Handsome Bastards of Comedy," but you can still catch the special Valentine's Day show, "Love Fest," at The Edge Comedy Club (Chicago Center for the Performing Arts, 777 N. Green Street). It's nothing but relationship jokes from the lovelorn Dustin White, Matt Drufke, Dave Odd, and Shay Shay. Then, February 14th at 8:30 is a very special Valentine's Day show. Then, on Friday February 15th at 10:30, enjoy the Ha-Ha-Hotties, an all female comedy show with Leah Eva, Katie Canavan, Michelle Thompson, Beth Stelling, Carrie Callahan, Julianna Forlano, Christien Parisi, Kat, and Tiffany Puterbaugh hosting as 'Aunt Flo'.
There's also an all-female lineup at the Lincoln Lodge's Valentine's Day show (4008 N. Lincoln Ave), where hostess Cameron Esposito will be serving cupcakes baked with her own loving hand. Esposito will be joined by Jessica Halem who is also nominated as Best Female Standup at the Chicago Comedy Awards, coming up in March. Also performing will be Time Out Chicago's "Funniest Person in Chicago" finalist Jena Friedman and the ever-frenetic Money Kids.
And, as if all this weren't enough, we just got word that the Chicago Comedy House is also having a show at Timothy O'Tooles (622 N Fairbanks Court) tomorrow at 9:00 p.m. Fay Canale hosts the free show, featuring Ricky Carmona, Brendan McGowan, Mike Lee and Chad Briggs. Cold $2 PBR tallboys and hot Chicago comedy. What more could you ask for?
