Mike Birbiglia Tickets at State Theatre

Mike B never disappoints, and again provided a great show at the Chicago Theater, with a really fun opening act in Gary Simmons.

Show was great! Traveled from Detroit to Chicago just to see him! Gary(opening act) was really good, too!

The warmup act was mediocre at best. Mike started at 7:05 and we were walking out at 8:06. He was funny with some good belly laughs but about a 7 out of 10.

The folding chairs need to be spaced higher from the row on front. I spent half the show bobbing and weaving around the very tall men sitting in front of me. Also you need to put the address of the parking garage that is included in the ticket price for GPS. There is construction and half the roads closed to get to the garage and we would have appreciated the address.

The show may have started a little late because the lines were long and it wrapped around 2 blocks. We got into the theatre 15 minutes past the show start time because of it. The comedian, Mike B is a fantastic. Love his story telling and clean jokes. You will not be disappointed.

Paramount staff was great. Show was even better than expected. Mike is a special kind of comedian. Great stories. My jaws were sore after laughing so hard and smiling for 90 minutes. He didn’t resort to foul language like so many comedians do these days. Highly recommend seeing him to anyone who wants a good laugh.

Overall I probably only laughed at about 15% of his jokes. It seems like he was just trying out mostly new material so maybe in the future he will perform better than he did. I personally wouldn't go to another show of his, but if you've checked out his stuff and like his material, it's worth giving a shot.

I have been following and listening to Mike Birbiglia since early on in his career. He has always cracked me up and once again he didn’t disappoint. I couldn’t be a bigger fan.

We've seen Mile Birbiglia several times now and it is always a blast. His humor keeps you laughing during, and after the show. Highly recommend seeing him when you have the opportunity.

Mike B. presents a very good show. We thoroughly enjoyed his routine. The venue, however, was terrible. Universal knew that hundreds of people were coming in time for the show, yet they failed to provide adequate security screening. Only three of the ten stations were open. We were directed by security to a line. After waiting 20 minutes without progress, we were told that the line we were in was not being admitted. We had to go to another line. After speaking with two supervisors, all they said was "sorry."They refused to make appropriate accommodations for the people who were lied to. By the time we got through the security check point for Universal we had to race to the Hard Rock. Upon arriving at that door, we were put through security screening again. After arriving an hour prior to show time, we were late for the show. Once inside we had to sit on the most uncomfortable seats that were crammed together making it difficult to even move. A very bad experience indeed. We highly recommend the Mike B. show - but NEVER at the Hard Rock Universal.
