Comedy at The Cabaret…

Monthly STAND-UP COMEDY SHOW at North Street Cabaret. THURSDAY, November 5th! At North Street Cabaret! The THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 5 show will be the perfect WARM GLOW on a chilly fall day. We have a trio of kind and HILARIOUS comics, who will make you glad you got a 'sitter. Kicking things off, the absolute legend, David Schendlinger (opened for Jimmie "JJ" Walker, & appeared on the Alan Thicke Show), will grace us with wonderfully-sneaky, ageless humor, followed by an absolute gem of the Milwaukee comedy scene, with her "quick wit, high energy and blunt delivery", Angela Keaton! The comic cherry on top will be everyone's FAVORITE combo of sweet and salty, the devastatingly funny, roast-y little nut herself, Peggy Hurley!

Life is Better When You Laugh!

The next workshops will be in December 2026.

Life is Better When You Laugh workshops are held Statewide. Join in on a fun and dynamic conversation about the importance of humor in our daily living and workplace environments.
