Christian Grensteiner and Nicole Wendel are the special events co-directors for Iowa State AfterDark. They discussed their excitement to feature a student club at AfterDark. 

“One thing that I’m really excited about is that we’re having a student club perform at an AfterDark,” Grensteiner said. “This is really exciting to feature a comedy club from Iowa State, which I think is pretty cool in how we’re trying to be invested and inclusive with our clubs.” 

Grensteiner and Wendel also said they decided to make Friday’s AfterDark comedy themed for April Fools’ Day.

Aside from the entertainment, other AfterDark activities include create-a-critter, bingo and karaoke all from 9 p.m. to 1 a.m.

There will also be other activities sponsored by student organizations. There will be an escape room from 9 p.m. to midnight sponsored by the Escape Room Club, Thinkfast game show at 10 p.m. sponsored by Dance Marathon and gaming and esports from 9 p.m. to midnight sponsored by the Gaming and Esports Club.
