About this Event
The Bi Wives Club is a comedy showcase for the outsiders who hide in plain sight. There’s nothing interesting about fitting the mold, and we have happily stopped trying. The comedians of The Bi Wives Club fill your night with hilarious stories, relatable rants, and plenty of silliness to go around.
Not bi? No problem. Nobody’s wife? Doesn’t matter. Join the club!
We’re here for fun, we’re here for community, and we’re here to celebrate and laugh at all the ways that we just aren’t quite what people expect us to be.
This comedy showcase will have an ASL interpreter!
Doors at 6pm with a one hour happy hour before the show starts at 7pm. Dorothy remains open after the showcase until last call at 11pm.
Tickets are $15 in advance and $20 at the door. 30 early bird special tickets are offered at $12/ea!

ABOUT THE HOSTS
Christen Manville (she/her) has an unmatched ability to inhabit discordant perspectives with ease and understand the world from all angles. She is as comfortable at an X-rated experimental puppet show as she is at your grandmother’s 80th birthday party. She’s a lovable and playful comedian who can unite audiences in the stickiest of dive bars and the swankiest of theaters. Christen is witty, insightful, and warm. Her comedy reminds audiences that they're not alone in pushing their heavy boulders up their steep Sisyphean hills. Christen is an award winning comedian, and an accomplished host and show producer. To some, her most enviable accomplishment is finding a rare gem of a husband at a dive bar comedy open mic night. Every show with Christen is like a party with your best friends. To see pictures of her dog and her bike, follow her Instagram @christmanville.
Kayla McCaffrey (she/her) is a Chicago-based comedian, improviser and actor. She has performed at Second City, iO Theater, Annoyance, Laugh Factory and at festivals Loons on the Lake, Detroit Comedy Festival and Boom Chicago Comedy Festival in Amsterdam. Born and raised in the small town of Marlborough, Connecticut, she has made it her life mission to be the bi wife she is today. Recent to marriage, she still navigates herself in the role of a wife, an inner child, a dog mom and a vegan. She can't wait to marry all of you, yes, you, too. You can catch more of her regularly performing on iO's resident company Megalodonna and of course her internationally recognized team Wolf Town. Follow her Instagram @jkaylalol
Kris Lantzy (she/her) is a Chicago comedian and actor. She has performed theatre, sketch and stand-up comedy all over the city. Kris tackles topics like queer parenting, what to do when everyone thinks your wife is your sister, and how best to steal fancy cheeses through her playful comedic lens. Her recent stage credits include Outlaws with Avalanche Theatre Company, Neighborhood 3: Requisition of Doom with Bower Theatre Company, and her one-woman show SUREthing at NYC and Chicago Sketch Festivals. Because once you see her perform, you’re gonna want more, go ahead and follow her @theekrislantzy on Instagram.
