Laughs on the Lake!

Come enjoy an evening of live stand-up, drinks, lake views, and belly laughs! Great comedy, delicious food, and a spectacular view of Lake Michigan. Not a bad way to spend a night. Laughs on the Lake is a new comedy showcase hosted by Theater on the Lake, one of Chicago's most iconic spots, sitting right on Lincoln Park's lakefront. Every comedy showcase features nationally touring headliners, and there's no better room in the city to see them. Great comics, a historic venue, and the lake right outside. It doesn't get much better than that! Come early and grab dinner at Theater on the Lake's restaurant before the show. The bar stays open the whole time, so you won't miss a punchline while you wait for your next drink. Laughs on the Lake is produced by Chicago Comedy Works, the bad asses behind Bad Momz of Comedy. They know how to put on a great night out, and this one comes with a lake breeze. Grab your tickets, bring your friends, and come laugh by the lake.
