    Comedians You Should Know is an independently-produced comedy show set on changing the face of Chicago comedy by bringing stand-up to the forefront. It's no secret that Chicago is the improv capital, but CYSK thinks they can alter that perception by offering a show featuring only the best of Chicago stand-up, which includes their rotating roster of eight core members as well as local and national comedians. Check out their weekly showcase at Timothy O'Toole's and their monthly show at The Lakeshore Theater.

    The premiere of CYSK @ O'Toole's is tonight, 9 PM!

    If can't make it tonight, go to the premiere of CYSK @ The Lakeshore Theater this Friday, 10:30 PM.

    Or go to both. Or don't go to any. Or rub your elbow against your cat's nose.
