Copley Comedy Series: Headliner Tim Cavanaugh, featuring Michelle Krajecki

Tim Cavanaugh takes audiences on an interactive ride filled with funny songs, stand-up, and over $7 in prizes—every show! While that kind of prize money adds up over time, he loves his audiences so much that he sees it as a “mighty small sacrifice.” On stage, his warm style and quick wit make every performance unique and unforgettable. His guest appearances on Chicago TV and radio over the years have been classic, starting on WLUP on shows hosted by Steve Cochran and Danny Bonaduce. Nationally, Cavanaugh can be heard regularly in over 100 radio markets on The Bob and Tom Show. His monthly segment, “Tim Cavanaugh’s Cavalcade of Celebrity Birthdays” is a B&T favorite. Over the years, 42 of his songs have been played on the legendary “Dr. Demento” radio show, which debuted his hit, “99 Dead Baboons.” He is a veteran of ABC, Comedy Central and Showtime. His special, “The Joys of UncleDumb” can be seen online at “Dry Bar Comedy” and you can find him on Sirius/XM. Michelle Krajecki is a former teacher turned standup comic, whose sharp, clean and relatable humor has entertained audiences across the country. Born and raised in Chicago, she draws inspiration from the beautiful chaos of her own life - years spent teaching, raising two kids on the spectrum and being married to a very tall husband. Add in middle age misadventures and daily battles with changing technology and Krajecki has no shortage of material. She started out at the Training Center at The Second City in Chicago mid-life and expanded her reach nationally. Her Open Bar Comedy special, Accept No Substitute, earned widespread attention with clips approaching 3 million views. She is currently traveling with Boomer Broads Comedy.
