The Innovative Comedian in Conversation and Performance

4544 N Lincoln Ave · Gary and Laura Maurer Concert Hall · 773.728.6000


Each ticket purchase will include a copy of Reggie Watts' book Great Falls, MT: Fast Times, Post-Punk Weirdos, and a Tale of Coming Home Again.

Join Old Town School of Folk Music and Chicago Humanities for a laugh-filled evening of conversation and performance with the innovative comedian Reggie Watts.

Reggie Watts is a comedian and musician known for his brilliantly irreverent improvised performances. Reggie recounts his weird and wonderful life in his latest book, Great Falls, MT: Fast Times, Post-Punk Weirdos, and a Tale of Coming Home Again. Navigating the challenges of identity, relationships, and self-expression in the 1980s, Watts was raised within a culturally diverse family and oscillated between various social groups before finding solace among fellow misfits. Join Old Town School and Chicago Humanities for an evening filled with laughter, starting with a wide-ranging conversation with the innovative comedian about how his distinct comedy style and career are deeply rooted in his hometown, followed by a performance that showcases why Reggie Watts is the beloved oddball we all adore.

This event is a co-presentation with Chicago Humanities and Old Town School of Folk Music.
