“Bill is the producer of the ‘Shark Attack’ comedy show in Chicago and Amy is a regular at Laugh Factory Chicago and Zanies,” said Henn. “Stefan is a nationally touring comedian, while Aaron, Deon and Frandu are well known local comedians. I am excited about the caliber of a show we are bringing for the audience.”

“We have three comedians coming in from out of town, four Madison open mic hosts, and one of the ‘Madison’s Funniest Comic’ competition winners,” said Graham. “We have a tremendous group of comedians for both shows, and it is a great opportunity to enjoy laughs with some of the best craft brews made in Madison! Also, both events are 21 and older.”

‘Comedy on the House!’ events will continue to grace the Madison comedy nightlife. “‘Comedy on the House!’ supports Madison craft brews, service industry specials, bar hopping, taxis instead of drunk driving, local comedy and laughing crowds.” said Graham. “ We will continue to put on events with these tenets in mind.”
