Stand up comedy open mic nights monthly at Eva’s Hideaway in Calumet
In order to create a thriving and complete comedy scene, FSP Comedy partners with Eva’s Hideaway for our open mic nights. They hosted our first ever open mic in August of 2023, and we’ve had a great crowd there ever since. By keeping the event free, we hope to open comedy up to as many people as possible. Getting together and laughing brings people together and builds community. We all need a good laugh once in a while.
