Angie Wilson-Hill and husband Richard love to laugh almost as much as they love to dance, and with their club on Terrace Drive in Mundelein, just over the Vernon Hills border, they had the space to offer live comedy shows.

Each monthly “Dance & Laugh” comedy night showcases a lineup of professional comedians from Chicago and the suburbs, and is curated and produced by Highland Park based Funnier By The Lake Comedy.

Like all of Funnier By The Lake’s suburban shows, the goal is to deliver a “Chicago comedy club” level show without the hassle, time and expense of traveling into the city.

In addition to the great music, dancing, dance instruction and the comedy show, Angela and Richard include a buffet dinner, all for less than $30 per person, with an additional discount for couples.

All in all, not only is it the ONLY live stand-up comedy in Mundelein, it’s just about the best deal in town.

The next Dance & Laugh comedy show at Dress Up & Dance is Friday, June 28th. More event info and RSVP at the link below. Space is limited so advanced reservations are strongly encouraged.
