About this Event

The Bi Wives Club is back at Dorothy on August 30th with a stacked lineup of the hottest queer comics around! Not bi? No problem. Nobody's wife? Even better!

The Bi Wives Club is a comedy showcase for all outsiders who hide in plain sight. The show is a playful, intimate, and always hilarious fan favorite. Audiences praise the humor, atmosphere, and the show's sense of community and connection. It’s both one of the funniest and most energizing shows in town. An obvious must-see event, with comics that never miss!

ABOUT THE COMEDIANS

AMY GEIST is from Dayton, Ohio but don’t worry she can read. Now based in Los Angeles, she recently opened for Tina Friml during Netflix is a Joke 2026 and was Best of Fest at the Burbank Comedy Festival. She also headlined at the Moab Women’s Festival in Moab, Utah. When in Los Angeles, she performs at The Hollywood Improv, The Crow, Flappers Comedy Club, and more. You can find her on Instagram @thatamygeist.

LUIS AREVALO is a Chicago comedian who started young and turned his stutter from a weakness to a strength. Once described as the “future voice of Gen Z,” Luis’s material focuses on being emotionally correct rather than politically correct. He has performed all across the country in clubs and venues like Go Bananas, Haha Comedy Club, Laugh Factory, and has also done comedy festivals such as Beast Village and Floodwater. Luis has opened up for comedians such as René Vacas, Ken Flores, Chris Redd, and Geoff Tate. You can find his special on Lmao Fans (Onlyfans) @humbleluis

LIZZIE KANIECKI is a Chicago-based standup, improv, and musical comedian. She has been featured in the Detroit Women of Comedy Festival, Out Loud Comedy Festival, Manitou Springs Comedy Festival, Ha Ha Harvest Comedy Festival, IndyFringe Theatre Festival, Don’t Tell Comedy, Hoopla! Improv London, The Laugh Factory, and many more. Her song “Dumb Lesbian” is also streaming wherever you get your music. She has trained at Logan Square Improv, The Second City in Chicago, The Annoyance Theater, and the Old Town School of Folk Music. More can be found on her Instagram: @lizziekaniecki

ANNA P. NANNICELLI is an elder millennial, oldest daughter, bi wife, and concerningly neurotypical up & coming stand up comedian. A Lincoln Lodge FemCom enthusiast and alum, when she’s not writing jokes, she’s teaching her daughter why the WNBA is superior to the MNBA and toting around an obscenely large water bottle during her day job as a hospital social worker. You can find Anna on IG @annasaysbonjour and rotating in with the @Lip Service crew on the second Friday of each month at the Lincoln Lodge!
THE BI WIVES CLUB:
The comedian producers of the Bi Wives Club are three bi wives (not to each other) who perform, celebrate, and promote joke-dense authentic comedy. KRIS LANTZY is a queer comic and hot mom tackling alllll ‘the issues’ through her playful comedic lens, like what to do when everyone thinks your wife is your sister? CHRISTEN MANVILLE has an unmatched ability to inhabit discordant perspectives with ease. She is the ideal date for an X-rated experimental puppet show or your grandmother’s 80th birthday party. KAYLA MCCAFFREY is an actor, comedian, improviser, and vegan dog mom.
