After a sold out and highly recommended first run Michael Gomez is back with "HI MIJO IT'S YOUR MOM" , Michael Gomez's mom is notorious for leaving him lengthy voicemails in which she shares her often irrational, always hilarious, thoughts and fears.

Michael Gomez has trained in improvisation and sketch comedy at The Second City Conservatory, iO Chicago, and the Annoyance Theater. He currently performs at The Playground Theater with his Incubator team, Barnacle, and all over Chicago with his sketch group, Focus on the Ham. Gomez is excited to remount "Hi, Mijo, It's Your Mom," his first solo show, which debuted in April at The Playground.
