Jack Tucker: Comedy Standup Hour
Saturday, August 10, 2024 at 7:15 p.m. and 9:30 p.m.
Tickets: $20 - $35
After a seven-week run Off-Broadway in NYC with two extensions and a New York Times Critic’s Pick, the bad boy of clown Zach Zucker heads home to Chicago with his award-winning, alter-ego: Jack Tucker.
A well-respected journeyman and bonafide legend on the Upstate New York regional comedy scene, Jack Tucker is the ultimate comedian's comedian. Fighting to save his marriage, regain the respect of his son, and pay off countless loansharks looking to collect their debts, Tucker (Jack) will do whatever it takes to make you laugh. If the joke doesn't land, it's not because it isn't funny - you just didn't get it. Nothing can stop him... except himself.
This show has sold out in New York, London, Los Angeles, Edinburgh, Sydney, Adelaide, Melbourne and Mumbai, achieving a total of 498 walkouts worldwide.
Created and Performed by Zach Zucker
Directed by Jonny Woolley
Co-Devised by Zach Zucker, Jonny Woolley and Dylan Woodley

About The Den Theatre
The Den Theatre opened in 2010 in the Wicker Park neighborhood with just a single theatre space. Now celebrating its thirteenth year, Co-owners Ryan Martin and Carol Cohen, along with their talented and dynamic staff, have developed The Den into a multi-level, live entertainment venue that boasts five intimate and unique theaters ranging from 50 – 300 seats. In addition, the first floor houses The Den Bar & Lounge – a full-service bar where audiences gather before and after performances to share a drink and commune with like-minded culture-hounds. Today, The Den is focused on providing world-class stand-up comedy and cultivating its first love – the theatre. The Den is home to four resident theatre companies including About Face Theatre, The Artistic Home, First Floor Theater and Haven. Hundreds of other companies, artists and comedians from Chicago and beyond have called The Den home – from national names to local stars, and The Den consistently plays host to a lineup of exciting and diverse talent. As a building created for interdisciplinary arts, The Den has accommodated a wide variety of programming, including plays, musicals, stand-up comedy, improv, dance, film screenings, seminars and speaking engagements.
