Story Club North Side at Holiday Club

Theme: What I Should Have Said
Open mic sign up at 7:30pm
Show starts at 8pm

L'esprit d'escalier is a French term meaning "staircase wit" - the moment after a charged encounter when the perfect comment, retort, or declaration enters your mind too late to be of any use. This month we'll feature stories about what we wish we would have said.

Featured performers:

Comedic performer and all-around bad ass Tamale Sepp
Producer and host of the Soul Speak Open Mic Lawrence Binkey Tolefree

Story Club North Side is held in the back room of Holiday Club (4000 N Sheridan Rd) the first Thursday of every month. Entrance is free and a suggested $10 donation is greatly appreciated.

Holiday Club has been serving comfort food and cool cocktails for over 19 years. They are 21+ venue and feature nightly food & drink specials along with a very groovy atmosphere.

Produced and Hosted by Dana Norris

Holiday Club is located at 4000 N Sheridan Rd, on the corner of Sheridan Rd & Irving Park Rd. It's about a half block north of the Sheridan Red Line stop.
