Ontonio Kareem | Secret Society Comedy in Lakewood

Ontonio Kareem is one of those comics who just has it, recently making his debut on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon and quickly becoming a favorite among audiences across the country. We’ve built our reputation by booking comedians right before the rest of the world catches on, and if you’ve ever wanted to say “I saw them when,” this is your moment.

Secret Society Comedy transforms unique spaces into a pop-up comedy club, featuring nationally touring headliners alongside the best regional and local talent. No two shows are the same — different rooms, different vibes, always a high-level comedy experience.

Past headliners from our shows have gone on to appear on The Daily Show, Saturday Night Live, Netflix, America’s Got Talent, The Joe Rogan Experience, Hacks, and major festivals like Just For Laughs — often shortly after performing on our stage. We’re in on stand-up’s best-kept secrets so you can be too.

The Mahall’s Apartment is an intimate, limited-seating room designed to feel like you’re watching comedy in a friend’s living room... if your friend had great taste in comedians. Come early for dinner and drinks downstairs, then head upstairs for a night of live stand-up that’s perfect for date night, a group hang, or breaking out of your usual weekend routine.

Ontonio Kareem is a New York based comedian, writer, actor and music producer under the moniker KIRA. Ontonio’s awkward upbringing in Chicago is to blame for his uniquely introspective and subdued art style. His unique comedy has gained national attention, leading him to appear on Don't Tell Comedy and tour nationally. In additon, is currently touring with Abbott Elementary's Janelle James and has opened for the likes of Roy Wood Jr, Craig Robinson, and Chris Redd.
Ontonio's has amassed millions of views on Instagram/Tik Tok and is currently a staple in New York comedy clubs and festivals across the US including Moontower and a New York Comedy Festival Half Hour. You can also catch him in his role as DJ on NBC's Chicago Fire
