About the event
Nobody knows how to roast a place like the people who live in it.
Laugh Local: Vol II brings together a fresh crew of Cedar Rapids’ sharpest comics for a night of hometown hilarity, regional trauma, and deeply relatable chaos. These comedians don’t need fame or frills—they’ve got punchlines born from potholes, dive bars, and small-town weirdness.
🎤 Headliner: Dylan Wenzel – Nerdy exterior, savage interior. Dylan looks like he just got expelled from Hogwarts, but his humor is pure dark magic—dry, devastating, and brutally funny. If you’ve ever laughed through a mental breakdown, you’re in good company.
🔪 Alex Cook – Subtle, sarcastic, and dangerously clever, Alex slices through daily life with sharp observations and a healthy dose of cynicism.
🌀 Corey Chestnut – Small-town strange with a 9-to-5 and a deeply odd sense of humor, Corey blends absurdity with everyday struggle. He's doing alright. We think.
