We spoke with Alex Knowlton, Director of Joe’s Pub at The Public, for this week’s episode of The Lo-Down Culture Cast.
Joe’s Pub is an eclectic downtown cabaret space that was named for Public Theater founder Joseph Papp. Since it opened in 1998, Joe’s Pub has been supporting an array of artists at different stages of their careers, offering an intimate space to perform and develop new work. They present a wide variety of live music, comedy and performance nightly. Alex was named Director in 2018, after being part of the Joe’s Pub team since 2009.
They are throwing a 25th birthday celebration featuring Fogo Azul, Jina Brass Band, and Slavic Soul Party next Saturday, September 23 from 3PM – 6PM. It’s free and open to the public, at Astor Place, near the cube.
