In review: Rob's Comedy Playhouse & Charlie Weiner

As part of my boyfriend & my Valentines Day celebration, we went to Rob Lederman's Comedy Playhouse, of 97ROCK in Buffalo. The headliner was Charlie Weiner.

The venue was much smaller than we expected, however the setting was just right. The seating arrangements were a bit crowded but still very manageable. The wait staff was accommodating and served drinks and appetizers as ordered throughout the show. I would definitely recommend this venue to anyone in the area looking for an enjoyable night out.


Charlie himself was quite entertaining. He came out on stage with such spastic energy that he was speaking a mile a minute, and I was afraid that I was not going to be able to understand a word that he was saying. I'm a capable listener and I was struggling, however he did settle in and the pace became much more tolerable. The crowd was tough on poor Charlie, it took a few blunders to really hit a topic that the audience was responsive to but once he did he was off and on a roll. I would definitely recommend him as a performer, he was quite funny and put on a great show.

We also sat at the bar in Dandelions before the show and had drinks and shared an appetizer. The loaded nachos were really good, the drinks were drinks. I would be interested in going back there to have dinner, the menu was very tempting!
