Tappen In Comedy Presents: Bits and Buckets

Bits and Buckets

This isn’t your average stand-up showcase. Each comic will hit the stage with their regular set, but before they leave, there’s one final twist — they’ll pull a random topic from a bucket and riff on it in the moment. It’s a mix of sharp material, spontaneous chaos, and pure fun. Come for the polished jokes, stay for the unpredictable finishes.

July 30th Lineup:​

Sohrab Forouzesh

DJ Rybski

​HOSTED BY:​

Vinny Cerone- Vinny Cerone is a 23-year-old comedian out of Chicago, delivering dark, quick, and clever jokes faster than your last failed relationship. A regular at the Comedy Vault in Batavia, Vinny has a knack for taking sharp dark humor and making it feel fun. If you like your comedy sharp and your laughter slightly regretful, he’s someone you don’t wanna miss.

Brando Harris ​- Brando Harris is a Chicago-based comedian and producer known for his rapid-fire punchlines, chaotic storytelling, and effortlessly likable presence. His comedy blends wild personal history, relationship chaos, and parenting as a biracial father to an even more biracial son. Brando has performed at clubs all over the city, including regular spots at Zanies, where he released his micro-set special “My White Son” on YouTube. He’s been featured on Roast Battle Chicago and performed at the prestigious 312 Comedy Festival in both 2023 and 2024. Whether he’s unpacking childhood trauma, cracking jokes about race and family, or oversharing about his messy love life, Brando keeps it real—and real funny.
