Ashley Lusk is a bold voice in comedy.

And we are honored to have her featuring at The Story Luck Show. 4 Features, 4 open Mic Slots for anyone in Chicago to share a story. Stories are mature, funny & thought provoking. Free if you bring food!
But you might be saying to yourself, the other day, Dan shared an essay about the differences between jokes and stories. He posited, “A Bit Isn’t A Story.”
So, is it possible for comedians to share the stage with storytellers?
Yes! Of course.
The skills you learn doing stand-up, transfer and combine with those you hone learning the craft of storytelling.
Sunday, August 3rd, 2025, you’ll see how Ahsley uses timing, and embeds punchy moments in her work to form fully fledged stories. Ashley Lusk is a super cool Chicago comedian who’s recently graced stages like Zanies and podcasts like Daily Insomnia.
