A standup comedy show featuring 5 professional, clinically-diagnosed comics and 1 licensed therapist. Let the analysis (and laughs) begin!
FundaMental iLLNeSs is a one-of-a-kind, standup comedy showcase featuring 5 professional comedians who have been clinically diagnosed with mental health disorders, and 1 licensed therapist/comedian to help make sense of it all! Each comedian will do a performance about their mental health diagnoses and ways they've tried coping, which is sure to be insightful, relateable, and hey, they're pros so you can be assured they'll make it hilarious!
Co-produced by brothers Jesse The Shrink (comedian and licensed therapist) and Johnny Pickles (comedian, photographer, and clinically diagnosed with multiple mental illnesses including Bipolar I Disorder, Anxiety, Addictive Personality Disorder, and more!).
$5 from every ticket sale will be donated to the 988 Crisis & Suicide Lifeline. In addition, Gambit Brewing will be serving a one-night-only beer labeled the "988 Brew", with $1 from each one sold going to the cause. Join us, help raise some money for a good cause while de-stigmatizing mental health, and laugh your keesters off in the process!!
