Combining sharp writing with catchy songs, this musical sketch show is always witty, sometimes raunchy, and –above all– very, very funny.

This Stage 773 production features a rotating cast with sensational vocal and comedic chops. Cupid Has a Heart On has been helping Chicago laugh at love since 2002. “Critic’s Pick” - Chicago Readee “Must see!” - TimeOut Chicago “A show worth catching!” - Chicago Tribune “Consistently laugh-out-loud funny!” - Newcity
