Justin Elizabeth Sayre will return to Joe's Pub with their long-running comedy/variety show The Meeting. This "Queertily" Review is a new edition of the long-standing downtown favorite and will feature special guest stars Aaron Jackson and Josh Sharp (Dicks: The Musical), John Jarboe (Rose: You Are What You Eat) Jon-Michael Reese (A Strange Loop) and Amy Jo Jackson (Matilda: The Musical.) Tracy Stark will be the Musical Director. The show will take place on Sunday, January 28th at 930 PM. Tickets are available at joespub.org.

Sayre is thrilled to be returning to The Meeting. "The Meeting was really a love project for a very long time. It made me think about the world around me in a new way," says Sayre. "I think in this modern world, we still need a place to come and build a community around LGBTQ issues, and I hope The Meeting can still fill that space." The show marks the beginning of four quarterly variety shows all of which Sayre will helm, writing and performing new material at each.

This show will highlight guests of the show both new to The Meeting format and some familiar friends. Fresh from their amazing success on the big screen with "Dicks: The Musical," comedians Josh Sharp and Aaron Jackson are poised and ready to take the evening by storm with a special surprise. John Jarboe of the Bearded Ladies, makes her Meeting debut after a very successful run in this year's Under the Radar Festival with her show, "Rose: You Are Who You Eat." Making a stop after his whirlwind tour of Tim Murray is Witches, comedian Tim Murray makes his Meeting Debut. Jon-Michael Reese returns to The Meeting after a successful run in Pride Anthems, also written by Sayre. Amy Jo Jackson is thrilled to be making her Meeting debut after a stunning turn as Miss Trunchbull at Constellation Stage and Screen. Miss Jackson will also return to Joe's Pub in February for a solo show of her own, based on the music of Annie Lennox.
