Mission: Laughter! Military veterans storm Comedy Plex for the General Discharge showcase. Bold, unfiltered comedy in Oak Park!
About this Event

Get ready for General Discharge, the high-octane comedy showcase where the front lines meet the footlights! This isn't just a stand-up show; it’s a hilarious, "irreverent" look at life in and around the service, featuring a powerhouse lineup of comics who have lived the military experience.


From the barracks to the big stage, these performers trade their uniforms for microphones to bring you a night of "Mandatory Fun" you’ll actually want to attend.


The Lineup:

Matt Torres: A Chicago-born USMC veteran and actor known for turning life’s toughest "service-connected" situations into pure comedic gold.


Matt Michalski: Bringing a unique tactical perspective, this Marine Corps veteran and firefighter delivers rapid-fire stories from his time in the ranks and the civilian world.


Linda Marcus Smith: A U.S. Army veteran and creator of The Comics’ Spot, Linda has spent decades performing for veterans and using laughter as "medicine" for the community.


Angie McMahon: As seen on Netflix and Just For Laughs, this Chicago comedy powerhouse brings the hilarious reality of being a "military brat" raised by two service-member parents.


Whether you're a veteran, active duty, or just a civilian who loves sharp, gritty humor, General Discharge is your ticket to a night of comedy that hits the mark every time.
