About this Event

Voted Best Comedy Show by The Chicago Reader two years in a row - My Best Friend is Black is an all-Black comedy variety show based in Chicago that focuses on providing a platform for Black comedic performers. Our shows consist of stand-up, sketch, improv, games, and music. The show takes place every 4th Thursday of the month at The Lincoln Lodge at 8pm. Members of our group have performed on various stages such as Laugh Factory, Zanies, Second City, and have also contributed to The Onion.

Even though we celebrate Blackness, we encourage people of all backgrounds to come out and laugh with us!

In the event that we sell out, there will be a first come first serve waitlist at the bar.
