LINEUP
Headliner
Kristen Toomey
Kristen Toomey’s comedy career began in 2008. Since then she has performed in L.A., New York City and everywhere in between. Her commanding stage presence and energetic, expressive and truthful style of comedy are just a few of the reasons entertainment website, The A.V. Club, said, “Kristen Toomey is a Chicago original.” Kristen is a regular on the late-night comedy show Man of the People with Pat Tomasulo. She is an actress as well, most recently appearing on an episode of Chicago Med. You can see & hear her on her podcast, I’m Upset!, Kevin Hart’s LOL Network, WGN Radio 720, & NPR’s The 21st.

Featuring
Adam Allgood
Adam Allgood is a writer, standup and sketch comedian from Reno, Nevada (aka Biggest Little City and/or Silver State). He’s been performing in the greater Los Angeles area (aka Tinseltown, Hollyweird) for the past 8 years at venues and festivals. He has written and acted in many comedy videos. He was in a Comedy Central snapchat video for but a mere second, he was a lead in a feature length film about vaping, and there was also one video where he stabs David Arquette. Yet despite all this success he still fears the void and the darkness. Currently, he can be seen in the Pack Theater’s sketch team, Lick.
Special Guest

Leah’s career highlights include TV appearances on Comedy Central’s Road to Roast Battle (2016), Roast Battle II (2017), and Fox’s Laughs TV (2015, 2016).
