The
LAUGH benefit is an annual showcase created by Sirens, and
co-hosted by Sirens and ComedySportz
Chicago .
LAUGH is a 13-hour block of improv and sketch comedy performances
to raise money for Gilda's
Club Chicago , a free cancer support community named in honor
of the late comedian, Gilda Radner. Admission to one performance block
is a minimum $17. You can purchase tickets at the ComedySportz Theatre,
2851 N. Halsted Street, or by calling 773 549 8080 .
Dozens of ensembles come out to support the effort each year. Established
groups (like Second
City, Annoyance
Theatre , ComedySportz
, Baby
Wants Candy, Salsation
, and of course Sirens) along with a wide variety of
newer groups, help put on an array of programming that has raised
nearly $25,000 for Gilda's Club over the last four years.
