Event Information

Description

A one-of-a-kind comedy event in a premier yet intimate venue, Underground Comedy presents The Comedy Penthouse. Featuring always fresh, top-notch talent and creative food and drink menus with a touch of class, this curated show is the comedy connoisseurs choice every month! This month's headliner is the fabulous Reena Calm! Obsessed with comedy, Reena moved to Chicago and made a name for herself as a favorite in one of the best comedy cities in the world, a regular at all the legendary clubs and a teacher at Second City. She quickly became one of the most respected and requested comedians in the Midwest and is now a nationally touring headliner. Reena is a wordsmith whose material is autobiographical, silly and charmingly inappropriate, pulling from a lifetime of questionable choices. Speaking of questionable choices, she's one of the only women in the U.S. to ever live on the road as a full-time stand-up comedian. Traveling around the country in a converted minivan, this pun-slinger has made audiences laugh in ALL 50 States!

Full of wild tales from the road, Reena's debut album "CALMEDY" was #1 on the comedy charts, and can be heard on Sirius XM. Reena has featured at Limestone, RiOT LA, High Plains and so many cool festivals, including TURNBUCKLE at Codfish Hollow!! (She even got her infamous merch display at the Goodwill in Maquoketa.) Shes been a regular guest on the Doug Loves Movies podcast, and was a Comic of The Week on The Jackie & Laurie Show. She's opened for comedy icons like Arsenio Hall, Maria Bamford, Eddie Pepitone, Laurie Kilmartin, Doug Benson and many more. With Reena are features Brandon Ream, Matt Still, Jessie Vrba, and host Dan Umthun. Select food and drinks available for purchase during the show on Thursday, Nov. 20, 2025 Doors open at 6 p.m. with showtime at 7 p.m. Please enter through the east side doors for 1312 Locust and take the elevator to the 3rd Floor.
