In conjunction with Thorpedo Productions, the Stand-down is a Chicago-based Stand-up Showcase and/or Open Mic displaying some of Chicago’s up-and-coming and edgier talent. Open slots are sometimes offered for newer comedians looking to gain experience or polished comedians working with new material. Weekly shows are held at Northdown Cafe on Sundays at 9pm and on Tuesdays at Blue Bayou at 7pm . For more information or to book The Stand-down to come to your town, email Andrew Thorp at thorpedoproductions@gmail.com.
