The history of

For 35 years, the Scarlet and Cream Singers, fondly known as "Screamers," brought joy and inspiration to audiences across Nebraska, the nation, and even abroad, where they entertained American military personnel. Born from a deep love for music and community, the concept of  Screamers Family Restaurant was the brain-child of Kevin Witcher, a seasoned music and entertainment professional and a proud former member of the Scarlet and Cream Singers. His vision was to pay tribute to this iconic show choir that left such a lasting impact on all who experienced it.

The Scarlet and Cream Singers were founded in 1973 by Ray Miller, a passionate musical director, alongside Jack Miller (no relation). Together, they envisioned the group as "ambassadors" of joy, hope, and unity for the University of Nebraska Alumni Association.

Today, Screamers Family Restaurant carries forward the spirit of the Scarlet and Cream Singers, embodying all they stood for—a beacon of joy, hope, and light. It’s a place where everyone is welcome, respected, and embraced. Inspired by the mentorship of Ray Miller and the powerful experiences of performing and serving others, Kevin Witcher has created a unique dining experience. Here, delicious food and exceptional service meet heartwarming, family-focused entertainment, offering something special for everyone.  Screamers Family Restaurant is more than a place to eat—it's a place to belong, grow, and celebrate life together.
