Emo Philips: Loons on the Lake Comedy Festival

Dinner and cocktail seating and service begins 60 minutes before showtimes.

Described by Jay Leno as "the best joke writer in America," by British comedian Gary Delaney as the best joke writer in the world, and by "Weird Al" Yankovic as one of the funniest people on the planet (he has toured with "Weird Al" in 2018 and 2022-23, with over 200 shows on three continents), Emo Philips has performed over 7000 times throughout the English-speaking world, including a multi-week run at the Playhouse Theater in London's West End.

Since starting out in Chicago in 1976 at the age of twenty, Emo has had award-winning comedy albums, several cable specials (including an hour-long one on HBO), and many appearances on network television, both in America and in the UK. He has appeared in films (most notably as the table-saw demonstrator in UHF) and as Salvador Dali in Weird: the "Weird Al" Yankovic Story), has lent his distinctive voice to animated TV shows (such as Slacker Cats, Doctor Katz, Adventure Time, and Home Movies), but his first love, stand-up, remains his true one.
