Since Celebrity Club closed, Shank has become the new Milwaukee home of Pat. He and all the regulars have been busy making the place more comfortable and intimate, not an easy thing to do in this large room. The entire place is rectangular, which allows a good view from pretty much anywhere in the place. Plus, there's a huge stage for Pat to roam around; not to mention that it will accommodate even more Groovy Thing dancers. Heck, even the restrooms are a decent size in this place. Doors open one hour before show time and there are usually plenty of tables and chairs for everyone; if you have a large crowd, you may want to get there early, since people start showing up before the doors open.

From Eastbound I-794, take the Jackson St/Van Buren St exit (number 1E, on the left) and merge onto Van Buren. Head two blocks north and turn right onto Wisconsin Ave. After a few blocks Wisconsin Ave curves left and becomes Prospect Ave. Continue on Prospect until you reach Curtis Pl, then turn left. Go exactly one block, then turn left on to Farwell Ave.

Shank Hall no longer has a parking lot. Please do not park in any lots in the area. There is plenty of free street parking in the area.
