About this event

Get the late night talk show experience without heading to NYC or LA! The Not That Late Show is just like the late night talk shows you would see on TV (Colbert, The Daily Show, Last Week Tonight, etc.), but with a Chicago focus.

Each month, our ensemble cast creates new material based on what’s in the news, what the internet is talking about or whatever is on their mind. The show also features performances from emerging musical acts and interviews with notable Chicagoans. Past interview guests have included Chicago Poet Laureate avery r. young, Girl, I Guess's Stephanie Skora, and Jacoby Cochran of City Cast Chicago. Part comedy show, part concert, part talk show; all fun... The Not That Late Show is a late night talk show for Chicago, by Chicago.

Organized by

Known primarily for the nation’s longest running independent comedy show (The Lincoln Lodge) we also produce special events, help others organizations to raise money with comedy events and offer classes (Feminine Comique and Stand-Up Seminary) to encourage more community participation in stand-up comedy. We have been very successful at nurturing local talent and can point to a long line of alumni like Hannibal Burress, Kyle Kinane, T.J. Miller, Pete Holmes and Cameron Esposito who all got their start at The Lodge. Our reputation for professionalism, talent and integrity means organizations such as Just for Laughs and Comedy Central have invited us to collaborate with them.
