Team
At The Lincoln Lodge, our team is the hurricane of talent and passion behind Chicago’s favorite comedy venue. From comedians to producers, we live and breathe laughter (sometimes literally). We’re all about creating a space where everyone feels at home, and we’re looking for new board members to help keep the funny business thriving—without having to be in the spotlight themselves.
