Edison Park Comedy Fest (10/17)
Yes I Am Show Business in conjunction with the Edison Park Chamber of Commerce is proud to present the fourth annual Edison Park Comedy Fest beginning Wednesday October 17th and running through Friday the 19th. The fest will feature Chicago's best stand-up comedians performing at three venues in Edison Park. Each show will consist of a different line-up of Chicago's best-known comics.
The fest is set to kick off at The Snuggery Pub (6733 N. Olmsted Ave) on Wednesday the 17th at 8:30pm and will feature "Your Funniest Friends!" Your Funniest Friends is a comedy group based in Chicago known for its off-beat and absurd brand of humor. It is comprised of five comedians who are always willing to test limits and push buttons. Its fresh and innovative approach to stand-up and sketch comedy rewards audiences with some the most unique comedy shows available anywhere in the city.
From there the festival takes on The Emerald Isle (6686 N. Northwest Hwy) on the 18th (8:30pm) . The show will star the Comedians You Should Know which is made up of six Chicago-based stand-up comedians intent on changing the face of Chicago Comedy with their weekly downtown show, videos and comedy tours. Their new, self -titled album debuted at number one on iTunes.
Friday night the comedy moves around the corner to Edison Park Inn (6715 N. Olmsted, Chicago) at 8:30pm where Chicago-based Red to Black Productions flagship act, "The Wind-UP" closes out this great festival. The Wind Up has been described as a high-octane, rock nʼ roll collective and they have a reputation of bringing the party with them to any venue in which they perform. Big things are expected from The Wind Up in the future considering its individual members have already achieved so much.
