Three comedians, one stage, and a night of laughter stronger than your grandpa’s cocktail pour.

The Lineup:
🎤 Charlie Kojis – Headliner Comedian
Charlie has been performing stand-up comedy since 2014, during which time he has been described as “this generation’s Charlie Kojis.” Combining his life experiences and general fears, Charlie blends traditional joke telling with his own personal narrative. His dry delivery leaves audiences both laughing and wondering if he is as okay as he pretends to be. Based in Madison WI, Charlie performs throughout the Midwest and has performed in the Flyover, Limestone, and 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festivals, among others. He has opened for comedians who include Tig Notaro, Nate Bargatze, and Michael Che and was the winner of Madison's Funniest Comic Competition at Comedy on State in 2016. He released his debut comedy album and special, A Normal Amount of Pain, in May 2023.
🎤 Joanie Scannell –Host & Comedian
Joanie, better known as GI Joanie, has spent over 33 years as a nurse—20 of them in the glamorous world of gastroenterology in Chicago. By day, she’s helping patients decide if they should or should not poop. By night, she swaps enemas for punchlines, delivering sharp, sarcastic humor that’s way easier to digest. Known for her quick wit and fearless humor, she’s mastered the art of healing with laughter (and occasionally with laxatives). She has performed in various cities, including Chicago, IL, Oak Park, IL, Green Lake, WI, Juniper, FL, and Fort Collins, Co. Organizing and preforming at Town Square in Green Lake, WI.

🎤 Johnny Beehner – Comedian
Johnny's silly, likable style of clean comedy has been pleasuring audiences for years! He’s been seen on the Late Show with David Letterman, heard on the Bob and Tom show, and smelled on … Nevermind. With a background in improvisational theater and over 20 years on the circuit, his show is one not to miss!
Join us at Town Square for an evening of comedy and good company.
