After selling out venues throughout the country, the smash-hit, all-Native comedy show, Good Medicine, comes to the Chico Performances for a one-night-stand of stand-up! Hosted and produced by comedian Jackie Keliiaa (Netflix) the showcase features the best and brightest Native comedians across North America. Founded in 2020, Good Medicine was first launched as a virtual comedy show raising funds for tribes impacted by covid-19. Since the show’s humble beginnings on Keliiaa’s kitchen table, Good Medicine has sold-out shows across the country and featured comedians hailing from over 30 tribal Nations who have been seen on Comedy Central, Netflix, ABC, NBC, FX and more!
Good Medicine is more than a comedy show—it cultivates joy, community, and creates narrative change. “We believe that humor has the power to heal and build bridges of understanding across communities. And did I mention our shows are also really funny?,” said Keliiaa, “You won’t find any stoic Hollywood tropes in these sets; these comedians are using humor to define Native identity in our own words and on our own terms.” Don’t miss this nationally acclaimed showcase featuring fresh and diverse Native voices.
Join Chico Performances for a pre-performance Party on the Patio featuring food trucks, beverages, and live music. The fun starts at 6 PM, see you there!
