You can see him every Thursday night hosting the open mic at CG’s Comedy Club. Whether he’s at any of Chicago’s premiere comedy clubs or a sticky roadhouse dive bar, a night of Comedy with Mike Caceres will be a show you won’t soon forget!
Main Feature Rebecca Jaffe is a Chicago-based musical comedian. Accompanied by her ukulele, she has a playful sound with quirky lyricism, ear-worm melodies, and vocals of a folklike timbre. She’s played at venues including The Second City, Laugh Factory, and Zanies. A St. Louis native, she’s opened twice for Ludo at The Pageant and played at Flyover Comedy. However, her greatest achievement is receiving an irate email from the mayor of a small town. Jeremy really didn’t like her.

Dobie has performed with a who’s who of standup comedians, including Jerry Seinfeld, Jay Leno, Drew Carey, Steve Harvey, Jeff Foxworthy, Rosie O’Donnell, Jeff Dunham, Sam Kinison, and far too many more to list!
