Just Announced: Radio Happy Hour

On Sale Now

The second Saturday of the month throughout the summer. With Andrew WK in August.


Radio Happy Hour is a live variety show featuring an old-time radio comedy/drama and guest stars such as Andrew WK. The show engages its guests – actors, musicians, authors – in a wildly right-angled conversation that careens between interviews, performances, and audience questions. And at the center of it all is a short, old time radio drama/comedy in which the guest stars as him or herself or, in some cases, as Nancy Drew. Audiences will see all of this--the interviews, the corny jokes, the guest performances, and the behind-the-scenes making of a radio drama--from 2 to 3 pm on the second Saturdays of June, July, and August. Radio Happy Hour is an updated, New York version of Hee Haw. With more drinking. And sound effects.

Drinking cheaply in the afternoon. Radio Drama. Famous stars pretending like they’re real people. It’s like the depression, but funnier.

Watch some Hee-Haw:
