About this event

  • No venue parking

East of California West of New York is a stand-up show that features Asian American comedians in the midwest. Unlike New York or Los Angeles, Chicago is never thought of as a place where we live, work, fall in love, and go to children’s museums. The aim of this show is to highlight Asian American comedians and their experiences in the midwest to show our presence here, and show those of us on the coasts that you don’t need to be near salty water to be funny.

Special accommodations can be made for larger parties. Please email thelincolnlodge@gmail.com with information about your party size and any specific requirements.

REFUND POLICY: Please note that refunds are only available by request up to 24 hours before the event start date. Requests for refunds after that will be declined but a credit note will be issued for future shows (via email.) Thanks.
