Joe’s Pub at The Public Theater, a nightclub in Lower Manhattan, debuted in October 1998 and gives voice to a world of varied and stellar artists. It is a for-profit division of the Public Theater. Its name comes from legendary New York patron of the arts Joseph Papp, who established the Public Theater and Shakespeare in the Park, the Public Theater’s best-known tradition.
With impeccable sound and lights, the warm and intimate candlelit atmosphere of Joe’s Pub is filled with plush velvet couches, softly glowing lucite tables and gorgeously understated architecture. Joe’s Pub is open seven days a week, regularly hosting as many as three shows a day. Dinner and drink service is available during every performance; the venue offers a classic Italian dinner menu and a fully stocked bar.
The Village Voice voted Joe’s Pub the “Best Excuse to Let a Single Venue Dictate Your Taste.” Newsweek calls the club “one of the country’s best small stages” and New York Magazine raves “you never know what you’ll find next at Joe’s Pub, but you can count on the fact that it will be good, very good.”
