The Chicago Handshake is the city’s most unique stand up showcase. Created by Nick Davis (The Second City, iO, at least one Hallmark movie) and Harry Breitner (Zanies, Roast Battle, most 4am bars) The Chicago Handshake features four of the city’s best doing longer sets on Chicago’s only fully narrative stand up show.
Just like your go to order at your favorite watering hole, The Chicago Handshake is two things you love for the price of one. You’ve got your beer: classic, reliable and timeless—that’s the standup. And then you've got a shot of something special just to introduce a little chaos—that’s the one-of-kind story that frames the show each month. A perfect combo that you can only get in a city like Chicago.
The Chicago Handshake: it’s standup, it’s a story, it’s a show you’ll still be feeling in the morning.
