The Red Room at Cap City: Chris Higgins

Full Description

Chris Higgins is a nationally touring comedian from Colorado, now based in Chicago, who brings a unique blend of stoner wisdom, masterful impressions, and outdoorsy sensibilities to stages across the country. Known for his viral stand-up clips that have amassed millions of views, his online sketch series "God n Angel" (1.6M followers), and his comedy special "Live at the Fort," Chris is quickly establishing himself as one of comedy's most distinctive rising voices. A festival favorite, Chris has performed at the New York Comedy Festival, Netflix is a Joke Comedy Festival, and High Plains Comedy Festival, while taking home "Best of the Fest" honors at both Westend Comedy Festival and 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festival. His comedy has been featured on Don't Tell Comedy, ViceTV, Bob & Tom, and he's currently selling out stops nationwide. Chris's comedy attracts fans of comics like Rory Scovel, Kyle Kinane, and Mitch Hedberg - audiences who appreciate clever wordplay, unexpected perspectives, and a comedian who proves you can be both laid-back and razor-sharp. Chris combines Colorado's outdoor spirit with Chicago's comedy hustle to create something entirely his own. Chris would list more credits, but it's generally frowned upon to claim you're the host of the Tonight Show without being Jimmy Fallon.
