Kalamazoo Comedy

Kalamazoo Comedy is turning 8-years-old. Ah, it feels like only yesterday when they were crawling and drooling. Now, their training wheels are off, they're missing their two front teeth. We're just so proud!

Mattawan-boy-done-good Halli Borgfjord is bringing his comedy to the stage at Shakespeare's Lower Level.

Festival organizer Dann Sytsma says, quote, "This is going to be a big one. We’ll be bringing back one of our most popular improvisers, Craig Uhlir, from Chicago, who performed at the festival back when it first started. We’ll also be featuring a live recording of the internationally known podcast Gettin’ Nuts, which is presented by its sister podcast, the extremely popular Hello from the Magic Tavern."

Because Crawlspace is now operating their own performance space, they are increasing their season from eight weekends to nine, and, according to the press release, "Crawlspace Comedy Theatre will offer weekly performances, including open mic, stand-up comedy every Monday, twice monthly improv comedy by Crawlspace Eviction and other troupes, sketch comedy and more."

There's a stand-up open mic practically every night in Kalamazoo. This is your chance to see if you have what it takes to be part of the Kalamazoo Comedy scene.

The comedy scene in Kalamazoo is growing, but it needs your help to keep on keepin' on, and all you have to do is put your butt in the seat and laugh. I think that's the easiest way anyone could support their community. Right?
