FRIDAY OCTOBER 14: CHRIS HIGGINS

333 E 10th St,Dubuque IA 52001

14 October, 2022

Description

Higgins has a look—big, bearded—and a voice—deep, gravelly—that belies his goofily friendly persona, an image he self-describes on the first track of his debut album “Good Boy” (released in January as The Comedy Bar’s first venture into the world of comedy albums and available on all streaming services) as “if a golden retriever became a real boy.” And like a golden retriever, he’s hard not to like. He moved to Chicago in 2015—by way of St. Petersburg, Florida by way of Boulder, Colorado—to pursue comedy. Originally interested in improv, his attention quickly turned to stand-up once he started hitting Chicago stages. “I had done stand-up before then, but it’s hard to say I had started doing stand-up before I moved to Chicago,” Higgins says, expressing his admiration for the next-levelness of the Chicago scene. “I think I thought I started, but I quickly learned what actually doing comedy was when I moved to Chicago.” OTHER THINGS TO KNOW: — All shows are 17 and over. 21+ to drink. — No dress code.
