Hosted by: Sasha Rosser --------------------- Wednesday, April 9, 2024 Doors open at 6:30PM, show at 7PM The Lincoln Lodge 2040 N Milwaukee Ave Chicago, IL 60647 --------------------- Tickets are $10 advance or $15 on the day of the show. https://www.eventbrite.com/e/words-with-nerds-ted-talks-but-way-funnier-tickets-1238137806509 --------------------- Words with Nerds is produced by Best of Madison winner Cheshire Cat Comedy and mixes TED Talks with stand-up by bringing local specialists and comedians together to present on a topic of their choice. Come for the laughs and walk away with strange new knowledge – previous performers have regaled audiences with presentations about dinosaur rib anatomy, a principal component analysis of the Taco Bell Menu, nipple equality activism, what can be learned from watching 100 Hallmark movies, how to perform self-surgery, and much, much more. Presenters span local entrepreneurs, professors, researchers, activists, union organizers, surgeons, engineers, and stand-up comedians with an itch to nerd out on stage. Parties interested in presenting at Words with Nerds are invited to send their pitches to cheshirecatcomedyco@gmail.com. --------------------- Lineup subject to change.
