SUMMARY:MCF Fri 10pm Show
DESCRIPTION:The first of three late night shows over the course of the MCF at The UC with some of the best comedic talent from the Midwest featuring Host Samantha Berkman (Chicago)\, Drew Flagge (Milwaukee)\, Mike Jonjak (Madison) and headliner AJ Grill (Milwaukee). \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSamantha Berkman is a Chicago-based stand up comedian and writer for The A.V. Club TV Show on Fusion. Her weekly stand-up showcase\, CAMP: A Comedy Show\, was recently featured in Chicago Magazine\, Time Out Chicago\, and Vulture.Drew Flagge is just a simple Milwaukee boy humbly and dutifully hosting 2 open mics and easily the best comedy show in the city called Insult & Battery (Cited source: Andrew J Flagge) I only work a blue collar job for the sake of the bit and so I can use my experiences in my skits\, I’m somewhere in between Tupac and Daniel Day Lewis.. Louis? I don’t have time to fact check the spelling too busy living!Mike Jonjak is scary funny. Always unique\, unpredictable and above all hilarious. Mike’s miserable attempts to better understand this thing we call life are filtered through a lens of sour cynicism but with a vulnerability and sweetness that is just a cover for the crippling depression. He produces/hosts a monthly showcase at Octopi Brewing and the stand up/panel hybrid extravaganja show High Concept.AJ Grill is a standup comedian currently residing in Milwaukee\, Wisconsin. An Iowa native\, AJ started his comedy journey at the age of 21 while attending college in Iowa City\, Iowa. After moving to central Wisconsin to finish a meaningless bachelor’s degree\, AJ continued to develop his craft working clubs\, colleges\, and bars all before graduating from college in 2015. AJ Returned to Iowa and won the 2016 Penguins Comedy Club ‘Funniest Person in Iowa Contest.’ His comedy is a mix of humorous personal tragedy\, silly wordplay\, sprinkled with the occasional rant about respecting large bodies of freshwater.

Alosha is an alternative multimedia performer\, stand up and comedy producer\, who also performs with LA-based comedy rap group The Doobley Brothers.The Garden Boys are a Chicago-based sketch and musical comedy group. Collectively\, the group has worked for Second City Theatricals\, aboard cruise ships\, and are house performers at Second City\, The Annoyance and iO Theater.
