About
Bill Burr headlines The Chicago Theatre for a weekend stand-up set.
This Chicago Theatre run is a strong pick if you want Bill Burr in a fully phone-free setting, since the artist requires recording devices to be secured in Yondr pouches. Choose the Saturday 10pm performance for the late-night option, or one of the two earlier shows for a more conventional evening.
What to expect
Choose Friday at 7:30pm or Saturday at 7pm if you want an earlier night; the Saturday 10pm performance is the late option. For Friday, doors open at 6:30pm, and the venue asks you to arrive early through the main entrance beneath the marquee. Pull up your mobile ticket before reaching security. Once inside, your phone and other small devices go into a Yondr pouch that remains with you, so handle messages and meet-up plans before the show.
