New venue in Chicago
Comic Dave Odd, who produces standup in Chicago under the Edge Comedy banner, is opening a full time standup comedy club at the Chicago Center for the Performing Arts.
He’ll be christening the new room with a Grand Opening Fundraiser Extravaganza on the 330-seat mainstage this Saturday, August 25th, at 9:30pm. Says Odd:
This show is meant as somewhat of a sampler platter of upcoming acts for the club, as well as to build capital for advertising and promoting the club so we can bring in strong audiences and bigger and bigger acts. The focus of this club will be on young, original, up-and-coming talent with headliners on the cusp of fame (or in some cases already there).
We met Mr. Odd some time ago while working at Wiley’s in Dayton. He is known in Chicagoland for producing standup comedy shows “with a punch.” Click this for details on the upcoming grand opening. Click here for Odd’s myspace.
