NYC: 265 INDIVIDUAL ACTS AND COUNTING FOR THE METROPOLITAN ROOM'S "LONGEST VARIETY SHOW EVER" - LATEST UPDATE
FINAL SCHEDULE NOW ON LINE
CABARET HOTLINE ONLINE IS A PROUD CO-SPONSOR OF THIS EVENT

Featuring a mind-boggling 265 individual acts, with over 20 emcees, and a battalion of musicians, technicians and designers, the "Longest Variety Show Ever" opens on Thursday, January 1st at 7:00 pm and runs - continuously to Sunday, January 4th at 7:00 pm at THE METROPOLITAN ROOM (34 West 22nd Street, NYC - 212-206-0440). The show will span six categories: music; burlesque; comedy/spoken word; drag; theatre/opera; magic/puppetry.

At 60 continuous hours of entertainment the Metropolitan Room's bid to eclipse the Guinness World Record for longest variety show (currently standing at 12 hours and 8 minutes) is also poised to obliterate other records such as most performers in a single show.
