We are thrilled to treat the world to its first ever SHOWGASM this Friday, Jan 30th at 8pm (click here for tix, only $10!). This new quarterly variety show will feature the most amazing discoveries in cutting-edge comedy, music and theater from tireless Nova Scouts scouring the city and the web.

Friday's premiere will be hosted by the versatile, inimitable Bradford Scobie, with music by house band Thin Skin Jonny and directed by our 2009 resident director Kerry Whigham. Featured performers are:

• Michael Burbach, who at 19 has his name in lights all over YouTube. It's only a matter of time. Watch out, Patti!

• Alicia Levy of Drop Six and general NYC comedy fame, not to mention keeper of your children's health!

• Video shorts by the one and only Greg Scarnici.

• VIDS, our Varsity Interpretive Dance Squad in residence at Ars Nova. Which is the better video blogger, though?!

Expect this and many more unavoidable oddities, unexpected cameos, and unimaginable good times this Friday, all for the price of a fancy drink! This party's sure to be worth your while.
