A Special Birthday For Pee-Wee's Playhouse

Join a host of stars, including Patton Oswalt, Fred Armisen, Bob the Drag Queen, Natasha Lyonne, and many more for this special night of variety celebrating 40 years of Pee-Wee's Playhouse!

What do you get when you cross the left-field vision of Tim Burton with the impish, bow tie-wearing pop culture icon Pee-Wee Herman? Why, only one of the most revered cult hits ever! Following on from the success of Pee-Wee's Big Adventure, Pee-Wee's Playhouse saw the titular Pee Wee (A.KA. the late Paul Reubens) living in Puppetland. Featuring a raft of quirky characters, skits, songs, and running gags, the surrealist shoe became a pop culture phenomenon, with its inspiration still felt today. 

Re-created by some of the weirder celebs of the day, enjoy this homage to the show (including some original puppets and more) and Reubens - there's likely to be nothing else like it at the festival!
