About this Event

Get ready to laugh, Milwaukee — Thursday Night Live Comedy Edition returns to Story Hill FireHouse on May 9th for another stacked lineup of local favorites and a nationally touring headliner.


🎤 Hosted by Mason Pingel
Milwaukee-based stand-up Mason Pingel brings a fresh, off-kilter style that cuts through the ordinary. Performing across Wisconsin and Illinois, Mason is known for his unexpected punchlines and uniquely sharp perspective.


😂 Featuring:


Ethan Schenzel – With infectious energy and silly observational humor, Ethan turns everyday moments into comedy gold on stages across Wisconsin.


Evan Pack – A Milwaukee comic who’s performed at Comedy on State, The Milwaukee Improv, and Zanies Chicago, Evan delivers everything from clever one-liners to high-energy storytelling (and we’re enjoying his youthful glow while it lasts).


Diego Avila – An up-and-coming Milwaukee comedian who has performed alongside Sean Patton and Natasha Leggero, Diego blends sharp satire and day-to-day politics into smart, relatable comedy.


🌟 Headliner: Chastity Washington
With a career spanning over 30 years, Chastity Washington has performed at colleges and comedy clubs nationwide. She’s an NBC Diversity Finalist and HBO Comedy Wings winner, and has been seen on BET’s Comic View, HBO’s Def Jam (Montreal Just for Laughs Festival), and the Martha’s Vineyard Comedy Fest. A regular at Laugh Factory Chicago and Comedians You Should Know, she has headlined top clubs including Zanies Chicago/Rosemont, Comedy On State, Milwaukee Improv, and more.
She has opened for Tommy Davidson, Sommore, Michael Che, Roy Wood Jr., and many others. Her stand-up special Live at Dandy is available on Amazon Prime, Tubi, and YouTube Movies, and she has appeared on Season 2 of Nate Bargatze’s Nateland Showcase.
