Bad Momz of Comedy in Greenwood, IN

Laughs by the Lake
Come enjoy an evening of live stand-up, drinks, lake views, and belly laughs!

Every comedy showcase features nationally touring headliners, and there's no better room in the city to see them. Great comics, a historic venue, and the lake right outside.

Come early and grab dinner at Theater on the Lake's restaurant before the show. The bar stays open the whole time, so you won't miss a punchline while you wait for your next drink.
Laughs on the Lake is produced by Chicago Comedy Works, the bad asses behind Bad Momz of Comedy. They know how to put on a great night out, and this one comes with a lake breeze.

Bad Momz of Comedy, as seen on the Kelly Clarkson Show, continues to sell out shows across the country - making moms and men laugh. Founded by Chicago-based comic Orly KG in 2022, each Bad Momz of Comedy show utilizes a small showcase of hilarious comics from its growing roster of 80+ influential mom/female comics. Previously packed venues include Zanies Nashville, Chicago, and Rosemont, Illinois as well as St. Louis City Winery, Chicago's Theater on the Lake, and more.
As seen in The Chicago Tribune, on WLS Radio, WGN-CBS-and NBC Chicago News, and nationally on NBC's The Kelly Clarkson Show, Orly K.G. continues to hustle her way into the comedy scene with her antics about marriage, shame-eating, and her decaying body.
