Funnier By The Lake Comedy @ Madame Zuzu's July 14. Cool Comedy and Iced Tea!

A funny thing happens in Highland Park, every couple of months. Professional stand-up comedians, from Chicago, the suburbs and the region, take the stage as part of the Funnier By The Lake Comedy (FBTL) showcase, at Madame Zuzu's Teahouse, in the Ravinia Business District

Funnier By The Lake Comedy has been producing live stand-up comedy showcases at Madame Zuzu's Teahouse (www.madamezuzus.com), an eclectic and funky venue owned by Smashing Pumpkins founder, Billy Corgan, since 2015. Each showcase is free to attend and features a lineup of talented, professional established and up-and-coming, Chicago, suburban and regional comedians.

"Our FBTL showcases at Madame Zuzu's shows are the only live stand-up comedy in Highland Park, and they are really fun to produce," says Funnier By The Lake Comedy's, Larry Bloom, who produces several FBTL comedy showcases each month, and performs regularly in Chicago and the suburbs. "Madame Zuzu's is small, so it fills up quickly, and the audiences have been great. They arrive ready to laugh, and we bring the funny," added Bloom.

Showcases at Madame Zuzu's are PG-13 and have no cover charge or minimum drink/food order, leaving audience members with extra cash for the sandwiches, treats and the vast selection of teas for sale at the venue, as well as merchandise from the individual performers.

Funding for marketing the showcases and paying the performers is provided by corporate sponsors. The July 14th event is sponsored by ATI Graphics, Inc. (www.atigraphics.com), of Highland Park and Improv Playhouse (www.improvplayhouse.com), of Libertyville and Highland Park.
