Brian Atkinson performs at A Lot More Fun Comedy Club in Downtown Lansing on Friday, December 1, with special guest, Kim Cook.

A Lot More Fun Comedy Club

We are honored to be the first completely clean comedy club in Michigan! Our mission is to provide a safe place for adults, teenagers, and older kids to laugh their rears off together! We don't believe that comedy has to have bad language, be suggestive, or have racial or raunchy jokes to be ridiculously funny. Now, having said that, the jokes will have an edge to them, and you might be offended by something, but we won't say or do anything that would make you blush in front of your teenage daughter, or give you something that you have to explain to your son on the way home!
