Teachers Gone Bad - Back to School
August 12th, 2024

Teachers Gone Bad is a Mind Twist Comedy Production that is geared towards the “open-minded” teaching community. Mind Twist Comedy works with a pool of educators across the country who moonlight as comedians or who perform comedy full-time (and not only in the classroom!). The show is definitely not kid-friendly and if you get easily offended – this show is probably not for you!

Topics are mostly embarrassing and school-related, but our nationally performing comics also discuss the hilariousness of family, parenthood, dating, marriage and other life experiences on stage.

Every single Teachers Gone Bad Show across the country has been nearly sold out. Teachers look to us to say the things on stage that they wish they could say on campus. And since the comedians are former teachers, they let it all out. NO HOLDING BACK! No fear of getting fired. How can you get fired if you’ve already been fired, right?

Get your teacher friends/frenemies together and enjoy a night of comedy before the crazy school year starts!

Date: MONDAY 08/12/24

Doors: 4:00pm CDT

Show: 5:00pm CDT sharp

Location: Laugh Factory Chicago, 3175 N Broadway, Chicago 60657

Your Teachers Gone Bad:

Irma Ruiz (LOL San Antonio)

Joshua Jay Nieto (Cap City Comedy Austin)

Lamar Todd (Helium Comedy Philadelphia)

and more comedians being announced soon!

Hosted by: Janice Rodriguez (Las Locas Comedy)

This is a special co-production with Las Locas Comedy.

Full bar and menu available. 2 item minimum per person. 18+ to enter, 21+ to drink. Buy your tickets in advance directly from Las Locas Comedy!** For more info about Las Locas Comedy please visit laslocascomedy.com and follow us on Facebook/TikTok/ Instagram/Twitter/YouTube at @laslocascomedy.
