”…Chemically Imbalanced Comedy. The name made me laugh. I wished her well and hoped the name didn’t become a burden should they ever decide to attempt to get government grants.”
There is something about our name that draws folks in, and scares them away at the same time. While at the Spotlight Chicago Event we got more folks to stop and talk with us because of the name. At first glance it made them laugh. Then some folks looked at the banner and kind of scuffled away as if we were going to jump over the table and stuff Anti-depressants down there throat.
I am here to make an official declaration! Go with your first feeling.
