ABOUT THIS SHOW

At You're Being Ridiculous, real people tell true stories about their lives. Each performance is linked by rotating themes, and by the desire to make you laugh ... and, once in a while, cry. Our motto: Good stories are better than good times. We laugh at ourselves and laugh with each other. Everyone has a story to tell. What's yours? 

Join us to hear true stories from a stellar line-up of some of Chicago's very best writers and storytellers. This time our fun, silly, and wild show celebrates saying so long to all the garbage holding us back! You don't want to miss it!


The art of storytelling is on display at Steppenwolf Theatre’s 1700 space. Hosted by the lanky and affable Jeremy Owens, You’re Being Ridiculous features a rotating cast of performers. This is not an occasion to be missed.
