Theater Undreground's 1st Annual Comedy Fest

Theater Undreground presents their First Annual Comedy Fest on August 13, 2011 at the Memorial Hall in Richmond, IL.  

Chicago comedian and Richmond native, Kelsie Huff, will be featured for this night of extraordinary stand-up comedy, as Chicago comedians come to you here, in Richmond, Illinois.  She brings with her, the kates, an exclusive, all-female comedy group that encompasses the distinct voices of several up-and-coming Chicago performers.  The hilarious kates provide an intimate night of comedy different from anything you'll see at a typical Chicago club or late night bar.  Center Stage Chicago writes, "This informal evening of sharp, stand-up features a rotating cast of Chicago's best female jokers.  Critics praise the cozy, sugar-fueled feel and the hosting skills of ringleader Kelsie Huff."

And it's not just comedy that's in store.  For the first time ever Theater Undreground will dive into the foray of having dinner and drinks available, and in doing so this Comedy Fest will also feature a couple of local Richmond businesses.  When the doors open at 6pm, guests will have the opportunity to mingle with other comedy lovers during the cocktail hour, provided by the Olive Black Martini & Wine Lounge.  The cash bar will available both for the initial cocktail hour and throughout the entire evening.  This will be followed by a dinner served at 7pm by the Sherman Catering Company.   Then, at around 8pm the show will begin when the kates take the stage and showcase this Comedy Fest that Theater Undreground bills as a night where "Chicago Comics Come To You."
