Chuckles Comedy Club’s website for both its Memphis and Jackson, Mississippi, locations are no longer active.

Chuckles opened in 2014 and has hosted several notable comedians including D.L Hughley, Eddie Griffin and Bill Bellamy.

The comedy club’s abrupt closure has led to a GoFundMe crowdfunding page looking to raise $450,000 to keep the entertainment venue open.
