Performing one night only in 2026, the HIDDEN HEADLINER Variety Show makes its debut at the historic Slipper Room on Manhattan's Lower East Side. A totally new concept, each HIDDEN HEADLINER performance will include CIRCUS ACTS, STAND-UP COMEDY, MAGIC, MUSIC, and MORE, plus an amazing final act performed by a SECRET BROADWAY STAR. We'll drop clues on social media in the run-up to each performance, and during each show, culminating in a surprise appearance by BROADWAY ROYALTY. Who'll star the show? You'll never know. Unless you go.
Hidden Headliner promises to deliver a hilarious show highlighting some of New York’s most talented comedians, actors, circus performers and magicians, and they’re all coming to the stage to deliver something you’ve never seen before. “You have to see it, on our stage, or you’ll miss out. This isn’t standard stuff. These are once-in-a-lifetime acts,” says AJ. “Over a year of audition, curation, and consideration has led us to this one night.”
Tickets are reasonable. The entertainment is unbeatable. And the Hidden Headliner is unforgettable. One ephemeral night you'll never forget. Tickets are limited -- the Slipper Room is an intimate space. Be there!
NOTE that photos, quotes, and descriptions are taken from our soft opening on August 3. The exact performance, cast, and nature of the show are subject to change. This show is different every time, by design.
“Wow. Wow, wow, wow. This show. So much packed into one show. I had no idea what to expect, but I was blown away.”
Riccardo R. (Aug. 3 Attendee)
“Non-stop laughs, and then suddenly there's a star on stage singing his heart out! I was not prepared.”
Debbie S. (Aug 3 Attendee)
“I loved this show. I already have tickets for August 17. I loved, loved, loved this show.”
