Rivers brings her latest stand-up act to the Manhattan venue at 7:30 and 9:30 PM. Rising indie drag band She-Dick is Rivers' opening act. The evening, according to press notes, is "timed to coincide with New York City's annual Gay Pride Week. Rivers presents an evening of her newest and most outrageous riffs on 'Celebrity Apprentice,' Hollywood, pop culture, celebrities, reality TV and award show fashion."

The venue has been transformed into an intimate nightclub with cabaret tables in the orchestra section, a full bar and waiter service.

Joan Rivers made her Broadway stage debut in Fun City and later was a replacement player in Neil Simon's Broadway Bound.

Her most recent theatrical outing was in her autobiographical A Work in Progress by a Life in Progress.
