Wow 6 months and 6 shows under the belt at The Tasting Room of Monona! This show was great and thank you to everyone who came out and packed the house! We couldn't have asked for a better turn out. Thank you to Amos Atkinson, Peggy Hurley, and Charlie Kojis for sharing the stage and bringing the laughs!

Comedy Night is finally here! Come on down to and check out the great comics, including Charlie Kojis, tonight's headliner.

Charlie Kojis has been performing stand-up comedy since 2014. Combining his life experiences and general fears, Charlie blends traditional joke telling with his own personal narrative. Charlie performs throughout the Midwest and has performed in the Flyover, Limestone, and 10,000 Laughs Comedy Festivals, among others. He has opened for comedians who include Tig Notaro, Nate Bargatze, and Michael Che and was the winner of Madison's Funniest Comic Competition at Comedy on State in 2016. He released his debut comedy album and special, A Normal Amount of Pain, in May 2023.

Peggy Hurley will be joining us Thursday night!

A Madison, WI local, Peggy’s comedy shines in both standup and improv. She is deft and skillful on stage, always pushing at the boundaries of comedic form for herself. Peggy is inspired by other women in comedy, especially when they actively support other women’s voices on the comedy stage. In short, Peggy is a huge (self-proclaimed) ham, with an even huge-er heart of gold.

Looking back at our first Comedy Night at TR, hard to believe it was six months ago already, but time flies when you're having fun! Gabriella Mamlouk, Craig Smith, and Andrew Rynning, helped make the first show amazing.
