Chicken Comedy: For “All the Chicken You Can Eat, and All the Comedy You Can Handle,” Memories is the place! Hosted by Milwaukee’s favorite weather man and all around funny guy, Rob Haswell, our Chicken Comedy nights are all the rage and the perfect way to laugh away the winter blues. A full bar is available starting 45-minutes prior to the show, so come early and enjoy a pre-dinner cocktail at a fraction of the price you would pay at a traditional comedy club. Or, you can wait for dinner- unlike pricey comedy clubs, there is no drink minimum at Chicken Comedy nights! These high-energy, sell-out shows start out in true Memories dinner show fashion- great food- and lots of it!
Our world-famous broasted chicken is so juicy and flavorful, it’s reason enough to make the trip! It is served with a full all-you-can-eat buffet dinner, complete with coffee, tea, and milk. Once your belly is full, get ready to laugh til it hurts! Memories hires nationally renowned comedians sure to leave you with a smile on your face!

January 11, 1959, I met my husband at
Weiler’s Log Cabin Ballroom. He was out
with his boyfriend an I was out with my
girlfriend. We celebrated our 47th
Wedding Anniversary this past June 24th.
Now my husband and I are enjoying the
Dinner Theater, and also the Great

are both here in 2011 to celebrate our
50th here at Memories. Thank you for the Great Memories! Gene &
