This month we're kicking off our "Cardigan Cast-Off." Spooky szn gives way to chilly szn! So bring your clean, gently-used cardigan (or coat, or rain boots, or mittens or any fall/winter wear) to The Mister Rogers Variety Hour donation bin and we will donate it for you to a local Goodwill/Salvation Army/thrift store. Bring whatever cold-weather clothing you’d like to give away and we will take it from there.

Note: There will be a 15 minute intermission.

The Mister Rogers Variety Hour is a monthly variety show inspired by the kindness, curiosity, and cardigan-stylings of none other than Fred Rogers.

It features a wide range of talents, from storytellers, to musicians, to debut characters, live interviews, and cocktails made by the most handsome person we know. It's all the warmth and big feelings of childhood, but with ample booze. Each month we bring you a curation of work (around a chosen theme) from the artists who dazzle us.

Though there may not be much we can count on in this world, we are here to promise you “a beautiful day in the neighborhood,” once a month, every month, on the Lower East Side.

Our ticket sales directly contribute to compensating our incredible artists and production staff.

Look out for our new tiered tickets!

This new tiered pricing supports our big vision for the show and our community (that's YOU!) In the coming months, the perks will get bigger and better. Thanks for helping us to kick off a new way to improve our neighborhood.

Can’t make this show but still want to contribute to the future of the neighborhood?

We are gratefully accepting donations of any amount at "The Helper" button that you will see listed among ticketing options. All funds contribute directly to the production costs of our show, including compensation for the artists who commit their time and talent to the neighborhood each month. Should you donate, look out for a personalized social media shout out from us (or, if you prefer to remain anonymous, we’ll respect that too).
