Mike Lebovitz
Chicago, IL
Mike Lebovitz's comedy career began at the age of six with clowning classes at the local JCC. He's been delighting and confounding audiences big and small ever since with his offbeat, yet accessible brand of humor.
An accomplished actor, director and writer as well, he draws from a broad range of disciplines in building his act which uses outlandish viewpoints and subversive turns of phrase to highlight the inherent absurdity of being. He doesn't point out life's little quirks, he revels in them!
Mike trained in improv at Chicago's famed iO Theater, where he performed with house teams Roadster and Ned Beatty. He was also a founding member of the semenal four-man-alt-improv group, The Party!. After an unexpected epiphany prompted him to give up ensemble work, Mike dedicated himself exclusively the craft of stand-up comedy.
Mike now performs his act all over the country and is a favorite at Chicago-area comedy parlors. His good buddy Joe Fernandez and he produce and host The Early Weekend Show, a monthly stand-up comedy showcase at Holiday Club in Chicago.
