9/11.
9/11 WHO?

YOU SAID YOU’D NEVER FORGET!

A 10th anniversary memorial, NYC Style Political Cabaret @ The Highline Ballroom

a benefit for The Uniformed Firefighter's Association Widow's and Children's Fund.


Knock Knock Who’s There, 911, 911 Who?, is a night where the New York City performing community is coming together on the 10th anniversary of 9/11, to be together, for a night of political satire, remember together and with our natural bad taste to laugh together.  Ten years ago we were all devastated by the events that caused so much heartache and changed the nature of our personal relationship with our government and their sale of terror.  Yes it’s been 10 years.

We present you with NYC’s finest, most outrageously loving artists in a 3 hour political cabaret extravaganza on 9/11/11, in which all of the profit will go to The  Uniformed Firefighter's Association Widow's and Children's Fund.


Artists include: Genesis P. Oridge, Sweetie, Amanda Lepore, Stanley Love, Bunny Love, Bambi the Mermaid, Jelly Roll, Dirty Martini, Julie Atlas Muz, National Theater of the United States of America, Reverend Billy and the Church of Earthaluja, 5 Crew Dynasty,  Sherry Vine, Rose Wood, Tigger!, Jennifer Miller, The Pixie Harlots, Murray Hill, World Famous *BOB*, Justin V. Bond, Sxip Shirey, Greg Walloch, Jessica Halem, Ken Ball, Pedro El Gigante Puerto Riceno, 5 Crew Dynasty and many more to come!  Line up is subject to change.

Pitch! is a live storytelling event with a twist. Four fearless storytellers: Gregory Nalbone (Metropolitan Room, Laurie Beechman Theater, Duplex), David Crabb (Ask Me, The Moth, U.C.B.), Karl Marxxx (Int. Drag King Extravaganza, Smithsonian Hirshorn Museum Afterhours) and Nathan Phillips (Dealing With My Feelings, Sex You (I'm Gonna), NPR) perform in front of an audience while simultaneously pitching to a publishing industry heavyweight! Our guest editor Daniel Nardicio (Vice President of Marketing, Playgirl Magazine) will share his feedback and maybe even a possible yes or no on the spot! Willing audience members are also invited to submit a sexy pitch!
Your hosts Greg Walloch and Mark Allen keep it lively and irreverent! Will the performers have what it takes? Will you have what it takes? Witness amazing stories, insightful editorial commentary, and the intense process of being a writer more closely than you've ever imagined. It's time for your big break. What are you waiting for? "Pitch!"

"Pitch!" happens on the last Wednesday of every month at The Lounge @ Dixon Place, 161A Chrystie Street, 9:30 PM. Ticket price: $7. Showtime: about 90 minutes.
