It’s the final Hideout show for Helltrap Nightmare — which next spreads its Chicago strangeness to LA
“Hideout, do you want to see me put my dead great-grandma’s teeth in my mouth?” comedian AJ Marroquin asks the mostly standing audience packed into the performance space in The Hideout with a flirty but demanding flourish, nonchalantly holding up a pair of dentures.

Kind Of Blue in Time Out Chicago
“It’s hard to say what it is exactly that makes The Hideout such a great place to see standup comedy.

Or maybe it’s the venue’s somewhat out-of-the way location, which filters out the riff-raff, assuring an audience of […]
