CAROL LIPNIK  will celebrate her upcoming album Goddess of Imperfection, with a special concert at Joe’s Pub (425 Lafayette Street, NYC) on Tuesday, April 5 at 7:00 PM.

The beloved East Village supper club Pangea, 178 Second Avenue, is filling its summer schedule with a number of new, on-going series in addition to its regular line-up of alt-cabaret stars. 

The beloved East Village supper club Pangea, which came perilously close to closing during COVID, is announcing a mixture of ticketed and no-cover entertainment during the summer.  The announcement comes as Pangea earns the prestigious Village Award, presented by Village Preservation at their 31st annual meeting on Wednesday June 16.

Between loyal local patrons, a Gofundme campaign, and the contributions of many Alt Cabaret stars, PANGEA is still hangin' in there after ten months of the global health crisis. Everyone is pitching in to do all they can to keep the beloved home of Alt Cabaret alive and well and living in the Lower East Side.

With the City demanding 2020 code upgrades that are beyond its reach financially, Pangea, which has helped countless artists freely develop work in a safe atmosphere of inclusion, experimentation and protest, finds itself in urgent need of life-saving support of its own.

Popular and prolific Pangea artists reclaim their artistry and industry with a new series provided by the edgy downtown club.

The far-right Southern evangelical country singer Tammy Faye Starlite makes another pilgrimage to New York, this time to gift America with a new values-rich concert celebrating who we are at this most promising time in history.

Several Downtown legends are congregating at the alt-cabaret hotspot Pangea in Marcha?? Among the headliners taking risks and breaking ground are Penny Arcade with her new show, a?oeNotes from the Undergrounda?? (March 4 & 18); David Cale, with new show a?oeSandraa?? (March 8), and Charles Busch being himself in a new act (March 26).

In a?oeClaywoman,a?? the in-character improviser Michael Cavadias portrays a 500 million-year-old extraterrestrial in love with planet earth, who says she'll keep on coming as long as there is an earth to visit. Interviewed by celebrity guests who ask about where she is from and why she has been visiting earth for so long, a?oeClaywomana?? is satire-improv presented by Kevin Malony's TWEED Theaterworks.

Cabaret arch-angel Sidney Myer, who is in the midst of a remarkable career surge since returning to regular performing at Pangea in 2018, will headline Pangea's New Year's Eve festivities in back-to-back shows at 8pm and 10:30pm.  The New Year's Eve edition of a?oeSidney Myer Live!a?? is a new evening of stylish specialties and signature songs, with music direction by Tracy Stark on piano and Matt Scharfglass on bass.  The show piggybacks on Myer's dazzling string of sold-out shows at Pangea, his newfound performance home, where he has sold out four separate engagements, three of which were extended by popular demand.

The Downtown supper club Pangea celebrates fifty years of Pride in an excitingly decadent and stylish performance festival, "Pangea Pride," which began on Monday June 10 and runs to Sunday June 30. 

Award-winning wit, wag, and piquant observer of life's mysterious ways, Tulis McCall makes a return to TWEED @Pangea in March with her smart and laugh-filled At Your Service: Advice From A Woman Who Knows Better. There's one show, March 12th at 7PM at PANGEA, located at 178 Second Avenue New York, NY 10003. Tickets online are $20; $25 at the door; $20 food/drink minimum.
