On the unluckiest night of the year, the Misfit Variety Show turns to Chicago for the third straight year with a night of comedy that chooses joy, connection, and community in an otherwise scary time.
A joyride of heartwarmingly irreverent comedy for the weirdos, rebels, and the misunderstood, the Misfit Variety Show brings together a rotating cast of eclectic performers to celebrate the beauty of not fitting in. Hosted by Lauren LoGiudice (HBO), described as “fierce” by The New York Times, the Misfit Variety Show blends stand-up, storytelling, character-driven comedy. Recently named a Time Out New York Pick, the show has built a devoted following by creating rooms where outsiders discover community and commiseration.
