Dorothy | Chicago, IL

This Valentine’s season, the Chicago Party Clowns invite you to a glittery, giggle-packed night honoring all kinds of love.
About this Event

Love is weird. Love is silly. Love is loud, tender, awkward, chaotic and absolutely worth celebrating!
This Valentine’s season, the Chicago Party Clowns invite you to a glittery, giggle-packed night honoring all kinds of love: romantic, platonic, queer, chosen family, self-love, and everything in between.
My Funny Valentine is a flirty, funny, lighthearted burlesque-clown variety show filled with campy sparkle, playful tease, and big queer joy, all wrapped in the cozy vibes of your favorite lesbian bar.
What to expect:

  • Playful Burlesque & Magic
  • Wacky, absurd audience games
  • Gloriously ridiculous clown dating game
  • Mingling & meet-cutes clown-style

Come single, coupled, poly, boo’d up, breaking up, or just here for the glitter. This show is for you. Bring your sweetheart, your bestie, your crush, or your whole chosen fam and join us for a Valentine’s night that’s anything but ordinary.

Doors at 6pm and the show kicks off at 7pm. Dorothy remains open until 11pm.

Tickets are $25 for VIP full stage view seating and $20 for general admission. All tickets will be $25 at the door.

Dorothy is 21+ and requires physical or mobile ID for all to enter. Dorothy is also ADA accessible with elevator access on Campbell Ave. If you are a guest who requires elevator access, please wait by the black door on Campbell Ave with our logo in the window and call our staff to assist: 773-770-3799
