Thanks To Our Venue Host

This show wouldn't happen without the generosity of our host. Stop by, grab a drink, and support the space that makes Chicago Open Mic Magic possible.

Vito's Vault

5901 W Lawrence Ave, Chicago, IL 60630

Vito's Vault is Chicago's finest roaring-twenties dinner-theatre speakeasy. Tucked behind a hidden door, it's home to an audience-interactive musical comedy show with Vito and his gang of mugs and flappers. Catch their full dinner show Friday and Saturday nights at 6 PM, and free parking is right next to the Vault. It's the perfect backdrop for a night of magic.
