Glitterus Comedy Night, 2024-09-05

Glitterus Comedy is a woman run stand-up comedy show that promotes the best women and LGBTQ+ comedians in Chicago. Glitterus Comedy is Chicago’s most fearless, unapologetically feminine, queer-focused stand-up showcase. Glitterus’ four comedy veteran producers, Sam Selby, Grace Kilpatrick, Georgia Moore, and Gwen Rose, all are some of the most in-demand talent in the Chicago Comedy scene. They curated every femme-forward line with the audience in mind, even if the occasional man slips in. These women are flipping the script on Chicago comedy and giving other women in comedy a home.

Don't miss the Glitterus debut at Dorothy on September 5th! Doors at 6pm and our showcase kicks off at 7pm. Dorothy remains open after the show until 11pm with late night happy hour from 10-11pm.

Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door.
