- **Event Name**: Chicago's Funniest Teachers at Zanies Chicago
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 02 Apr, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 02 Apr, 2026 at 08:30 pm (-05:00)
- **Event Description**: From the school gym to the comedy stage, Tom is a former elementary school PE teacher turned stand-up comedian and viral content creator. With a background as a professional wrestler and a love for all things fitness, Tom brings a unique blend of high-energy humor and real-life parenting chaos to both his live shows and online audience. After training at iO Chicago and The Second City Conservatory, Tom began performing stand-up in 2015. In 2020, he launched his social media alter ego, The Angry Gym Teacher, and quickly gained traction with his wildly relatable sketches and teacher life parodies.

Tom’s comedic style is sharp, honest, and hilariously wholesome, drawing from his experiences as a teacher, twin dad, and former athlete. He’s performed at top comedy clubs including Zanies, Helium, and Funny Bone, and currently tours nationally as part of the Bored Teachers Comedy Tour.

Jeanie Doogan
Jeanie’s humor ranges from sweet and nostalgic to edgy and adult-themed. Her quick observations and no-apology take on teaching, motherhood, and American culture sets herself apart from her peers. Her sharp wit draws on her experiences growing up on the Southside of Chicago, and her years as a public school teacher, to deliver comedy that reaches audiences of all ages, genders, and walks of life.

The Chicago Tribune calls Jeanie’s comedy perspective “fresh”, which is coincidently what Jeanie's dates call her, right before they ask her to pay her half of the bar tab. She has entertained audiences at colleges, casinos, and corporate events, in addition to legendary venues throughout the US.  She was recently featured in “Chicago Parents’ Magazine’s Four of Chicago’s Funniest: Stand Up Parents”, as well as featured on Nick Jr.’s Moms’ Night Out stand up special.

Erica Nicole Clark
Erica Nicole Clark is a Chicago native who studied at the famed Improv Olympic before deciding to venture out into Stand up. Her unique upbringing and her day job as a public school teacher make for a style all her own in comedy.  She has performed at Laugh Factory, Comedy Store, the Improv and TBS Just For Laughs Festival.
