If the names Brandi Denise and Kellye Howard sound familiar, it’s because they’re two of the hardest-working stand-ups in town, regularly featured in lineups around Chicago. But now the comics have paired up to show their fans more of their talents, and in the process introduce new audiences to local performers who don’t often leave the north side.
Because they run their own show Denise and Howard have the power to play whomever they want, regardless of gender or race. During January’s performance, they were Nancy Grace and Melania Trump; this month, they’ll be a pair of bros talking about sex and relationships—those aren’t roles they’d have in many other instances, but they’re ones they know they can perform. In fact, they say they’re willing to take on anything.
