"His easy manner with the audience combined with a magical skill second to none, is what the audience remembers after the curtain goes down..."
- LAS VEGAS ENTERTAINMENT TODAY
In the mid 90's, Herman Meyer realized his grocery store and deer processor customers had nowhere to go for good BBQ in Katy, so he opened Midway Bar-B-Que.
Midway Bar-B-Que became known for its down-home Texas aesthetic, including taxidermy decorating the walls of the dining room. They serve Central Texas barbecue, good for old-school-style sandwiches and top-notch sides like creamed corn and potato salad.
In the early hours of Feb. 20, 2021, Trish Cummins said she received a phone call informing her that Midway BBQ, the beloved Katy barbecue joint owned by her father Herman Meyer, was on fire. For more than an hour, the Katy Fire Department fought to control the blaze, but after it was finally extinguished, the building was declared a total loss.
Herman Meyer promised to reopen the iconic eatery- and he was able to do so because of an outpouring of love from the community. It took nearly a year to rebuild the beloved establishment and is now larger complete with a large banquet facility where will be presenting our "Midway Comedy & Magic"!
(Beer , Wine, Assorted Non-alcoholic beverages and Desserts are available "ala carte" and will be charged separately)
To help the evening run smoothly, please arrive no later than 6:30pm for dinner to give yourself enough time to dine before the show.
(Show starts promptly at at 7:00pm)
"The key to this production is 'magico' Harry Maurer, a brash, youthful performer with a good sense of humor who knows how to get around audiences."

"What makes the evening good fun is the get-in-on-the-fun feeling generated by magician Harry Maurer."
- CHICAGO DAILY CALUMET
"Magician/comedian Harry Maurer is a delight. He has possessing qualities that whole-heartedly deserved the cheers from the audience. He definitely has a special style of delivery. This young man is going places!"
- ENTERTAINMENT NEWS AND VIEWS
"Before you can blink your eyes or take a deep breath magician-comedian Harry Maurer takes the stage. Now I was sitting 10-15 feet from the stage and I have absolutely no idea how this guy does these tricks, but I do know one thing, Maurer is good -- very good! This just might be one of the best entertainment values anywhere in South Jersey, not just Atlantic City!"

- LAS VEGAS ENTERTAINMENT TODAY
"... magician-comedian Harry Maurer is appealing and very good."
- NEW YORK POST
"Maurer's big on audience participation and is one of those extremely competent comedians who handles this exceptionally well. He'll do a guillotine joke here, a card trick there, but always with a skill that gauges the temper of his audience from the word go and works from there."
- SUNDAY STAR LEDGER
“Ah, but then came the good stuff. . . We speak of comedian-magician Harry Maurer... For our money, he provided the best casino amusement we’ve seen on the Coast. . . Maurer left the stage, and we watched the rest of the show wind up -- And it was OK, but we found ourselves hungry for more of Maurer’s magic. Because, despite a Mick-Jagger president, a trembling Wall Street and a hurricane threat, when Maurer had been on stage, we were certain the sun had broken through the clouds. At least for a little while.”
- THE BILOXI SUN HERALD
"A lot of magicians TRY to be funny, but Harry Maurer is actually hilarious! What a fantastic show! "
Mary Self
Atlanta, GA
"I’ve usually found magicians to be boring simply because they are so often full of themselves. Harry Maurer changed my opinion! I felt like I was being entertained by a good friend who was having as much fun as I was. Harry made an audience of several hundred feel as though each of us was as important to the performance as he was. The illusions were all presented in a casual, fun way without losing any of their spectacular mystery. I was amazed, entertained and completely awed! What a fun show! "

Nominated for a prestigious “Atlantic City Entertainer of the Year Award” Harry Maurer (pronounced like “power”) is a comedy magician with a quick wit and a charming personality who knows how to get people to laugh while being amazed! He has led a diverse career by opening for such stars as The Supremes, Rita Rudner, Ray Romano, Joey Bishop, Jason Alexander, Rich Jeni, Rosie O’Donnell, Frankie Avalon, and so many others while entertaining U.S. Presidents, Celebrities, and even International Royalty with his fun and interactive magical style.
As a child, Harry was determined to be a magician and performed his first of many nightclub shows at the age of 13. By the time he reached High School, with the permission of his teachers and Principal he had managed to re-arrange his class schedule so that he could leave school early each day to perform the matinee and evening shows at a nightclub at the New Jersey shore!
Throughout his college years he continued juggling school and work by learning from professional Broadway acting coaches and scenic and lighting designers during the day at the “Mason Gross School of the Arts” at Rutgers University while entertaining onstage nightly at the New York Playboy Club breaking a record for the most performances of any solo entertainer in the circuit!
Presenting over 1,300 shows at The Playboy Club gave him the opportunity to work closely with and to learn from professional entertainers on a nightly basis while hanging out with top New York comedians during the heyday of “Catch a Rising Star”, “Dangerfield’s” and “The Improv”.
With his consistently clean and entertaining shows, he was asked to join comedy legends Joey Bishop (from Sinatra’s original “Rat Pack”), Jackie Vernon, and other national stars on a five-month tour of the United States followed by a four-month engagement in Atlantic City where the hit show sold out its nearly 2,000 seats each day! Since then he has entertained in more than half of the showrooms in Atlantic City including two "back-to-back" shows at the Golden Nugget Casino awarding him a prestigious "Atlantic City Entertainer of the Year Award" nomination!
Malcolm Gladwell in his landmark book “Outliers” states with certainty that it takes 10,000 hours of practice to achieve mastery in any field. Between Harry’s years of professional entertainment performing on cruise ships around the world, his 1,300 shows with the Playboy Circuit, his years of performing in theaters around the country and starring in production shows around the world (presenting as many as 13 shows per week) — Harry has clocked more than 10,000 hours! -- He is more than just “masterful”… he is an extremely skilled, fun, and proficient entertainer which you can tell the moment he steps out onto the stage!
Join us for this very special evening where you can witness the fun with magic happening right in front of your very eyes!
