Here is what some Yelp’ers had to say about our Friday Showcase this weekend:
Dana, Chicago, IL:
Positives: BYOB; the third improv group (especially the woman with the short dark hair!)
I thought that the third group was really funny! The ice-fishing, the smoking ban, and the closeted lesbian bits were hilarious. I would have enjoyed to see them perform for the entire show.
I liked the set-up of the theater, which is small and intimate — without making you feel that you are on top of the performers.

Chemically Imbalanced Comedy is definitely comedy off kilter. The Friday Night comedy showcase was a fun barrel of laughs where I’ll never think of Johnsonville bratwursts and my fingers the same way again. The showcase displays the talents of three comedy improv talents for $10 (our tickets were comp’ed thanks to Angela M. a Yelper and Director of Chemically Imbalanced Comedy). It’s a great bargain for a chance to see a number of different comedy troupes with different styles.
The theater is small and intimate which makes the show experience more personal. The staff was great and completely laid back and cool when talking to the audience and giving the particulars about BYOB and the bathrooms. The BYOB makes it even more fun when you see people coming in with six packs and wine bottles with plastic cups. That’s my kind of beverage service. I liked the comedy showcase and the theater alot. They also had other show offerings that looked funny and worth a look. I’ll definitely be back to see Book of Liz and Bad Review.

A lot of fun for $10 a ticket. We saw three improv groups and all got us chuckling a bit. I have to say it was definitely a work in progress, but made all the more fun because it is BYOB. There was some definite creativity in the show and the theatre itself is a very intimate casual atmosphere.
