Performance

Dog and Pony

0 upcoming performances in New York

At Union Hall, Dog and Pony present a set that treats the “dog-and-pony” idea as both subject and method, folding hype, persuasion, and stagecraft into character-driven sketch, stand-up, and intermittent pop/rock turns. The bill includes Lily Armstrong and Michael Abber, with support from Elzie, Esther Povitsky, Fallick, Jabari, and Kelly Schiffman, among others. No specific NYC premiere history is documented for this edition, but the format fits a long local tradition of downtown variety nights built on fast pivots and skeptical humor. One clear through-line is how easily performance becomes argument.
