Lavender Laugh Lounge (Sober Friendly, Queer Stand Up Comedy)

Join us for Lavender Laugh Lounge to see Chicago's hottest comedians. This stand-up showcase features the talented women, LGBTQ+ performers, and friends in the city. It's the best way to spend every first Saturday of the month in the Edgewater / Rogers Park neighborhood.

Enjoy our hour-long, stand-up sober-friendly comedy show - all are welcome to meet and mingle. Come for the laughter & stay for the social hour to catch up with friends, get tarot readings, and more. (Please note, we are in fact sober friendly, and any promotional photos with alcohol are from our previous venue.)

Produced by Elaine Golden, Lily Ellora Newton, and Rey Tang.

Admission is free. Donations are accepted at the end of the show.

The show runs from 6:30-7:30 pm.

Loaves & Witches opens at 7 am and is dedicated to creating a safe, sober, and inclusive environment, particularly for LGBTQ+ individuals seeking meaningful connections.

Looking for Laugh Dance at Whiskey Girl Tavern? Lavender Laugh Lounge, formerly known as Laugh Dance, rebranded to our new name in February 2025. Likewise, we moved from Whiskey Girl Tavern starting in Fall 2025. If you knew Laugh Dance or enjoyed our program at Whiskey Girl Tavern, this is the same show you've known and loved - but added alliteration!
