Armory Dinner Theater

 

Originally built in 1930, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, the Armory features a stunning array of brickwork, terrazzo floors and decorative iron. The building’s exterior has been preserved to retain its historical significance, while the interior combines modern décor and elegance with original elements.
Soldiers from the National Guard which later became Company “A” of the 192nd Tank Battalion during World War II, a group also known as the “Janesville 99”, trained at the Armory prior to World War II. The facility served as a mustering center for these soldiers who were deployed to the Philippines in 1941 and, ultimately, forced into the infamous Bataan Death March.
Today, after several years of being vacant, the Armory is now the area’s most exciting entertainment venue. The Armory offers three distinct dining experiences, highlighted by a 200 seat dinner theater. The Drill Hall Theater combines elegant dining in a theater setting with professional productions. Modern, casual dining and an outdoor patio are featured in the Bunker Lounge. Specializing in Contemporary American cuisine, the Lieutenants Restaurant offers a chic and intimate dining atmosphere for private events up to 50 guests
