You’re reading Variety Pack: The Newsletter! Each week we’ll pop into your inbox to let you in on what’s funny around Philly. If you’re not into that, feel free to unsubscribe. If you like what you’re reading, forward this to a friend and peer pressure them into subscribing so you can have all the same inside jokes.

That’s right, the window to submit to Variety Pack Vol. 3 is OPEN! We’re also getting the lightest whiffs of what some cultures call “warm weather”, which has inspired some writers at this newsletter to open the actual window and let in that sweet, sweaty Philly phresh air.

But enough about the weather! Let’s talk about Vol. 3 submissions!

The deadline to submit your show is Sunday, April 5, 11:59p.

If you’re reading this and you’re like “I would rather lick rust than perform in a comedy show, why am I getting this targeted ad??”, first of all: we don’t have Targeted Ad Money. Secondly, that’s fine! But if you have a friend whose comedy show you actually liked, you should send them this email so they can think about it. (Bonus: when they read this part they’ll be like “Awww, they liked my comedy show!” Huge for comedians.)

Grace Lazarz can literally not be tamed and is bringing a clown duo to this delightful $10 variety show, Hat on a Hat. Pop into the Trestle Inn for a drink and see some of Philly’s freshest new characters and acts! Pay at the door like it’s the 90’s and your biggest concern is Y2K!

Em Harnett’s monthly standup showcase is back on March 13 at The People’s Gallery! If you love a low-key hang with funny people in a warm room, come on down. This month features Chaz T. Martin and Get to the Point’s very own Maeve Hennessey!

Watch as Theatre Contra takes on the greatest foes known to man...ICELAND. Join us at Tattooed Mom on March 16th to see if the Mighty Ducks (and Kenan Thompson) can overcome their differences and fly together as they represent Team USA in some wildly unrealistic international hockey competition. $15 in advance guarantees a seat, then it's PWYC at the door NOTALOF.
