I have worked with Custom Comedy Capers on several events throughout the Chicagoland area. They are incredible to work with, and Jamie and Jim are some of the best people in the business. Their attention to detail and the level of talent that is always sent to events is not only consistent but the best in the city. Working with their talent is worth every penny! I can't wait to work with them again soon.
