The Comedy Exposition

02/16/2017

It's with a bittersweet taste in our mouths that we announce that The Comedy Expo is closing it's doors after 3 successful and wonderful years. With half of our producers no longer living in Chicago, we feel that this is the best, although tough, decision. We can't thank you all enough, performers, comedians, and audiences alike for making The Expo what it was and will always be remembered as: an amazing standup comedy festival committed to excellence. Thank you so much.
