Special Event: Chicago's Funniest Teachers

Chicago’s Funniest Teachers LIVE at The Comedy Vault – June 28 at 7PM

From the classroom to the comedy stage, some of Chicago’s funniest teachers are bringing their best material (and their best stories) to The Comedy Vault for one night only.

Featuring:

Tom Filline
PE teacher turned stand-up comedian and viral content creator behind The Angry Gym Teacher, Tom brings high-energy comedy rooted in real-life classroom chaos, parenting, and his background as a professional wrestler. A graduate of iO Chicago and The Second City Conservatory, Tom has performed at top clubs across the country and tours nationally with the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour.

Erica Nicole Clark
A Chicago native with a unique perspective shaped by her upbringing and career as a public school teacher, Erica delivers sharp, original stand-up that’s taken her to stages like The Laugh Factory, The Comedy Store, and the TBS Just For Laughs Festival.

Lilly Allison
A Chicago-based comedian and improv performer, Lilly is a producer at The Annoyance Theater and a theater educator within Chicago Public Schools. Her work blends both worlds, proving that sometimes the funniest people in the room are the teachers.

Whether you’re a teacher, know a teacher, or just survived school yourself - this is a night of comedy you’ll definitely relate to.
