The Secret Variety Society
Bringing together five artists from New York City's downtown scene, the Secret Variety Society is formed for a monthly residency at Pangea, the intimate supper club in the heart of the East Village, for an evening of satirical, surreal and sublime entertainment.
Contemporary variety for those with discerning tastes, low inhibitions and a love for the theatre of joy, The Secret Variety Society invites you to immerse yourselves into an evening of wild, weird and wonderful pleasures in the company of this all-star troupe of decadent fools.

"An amazing contortionist, Sknarina seemed to have the flexibility of a snake, twisting herself into a variety of pretzel-like shapes as the NSO played Marcelo Zarvos appropriately named Love Bended." John Pitcher, Arts Nash
Sabrina Chap is a Brooklyn based songwriter, composer and performer with classical piano skills, the ballad lyrics of Tom Waits, the onstage antics of Phyllis Diller and the voice of a whiskey angel. With two solo albums and several international tours to her credit, her sets are a ragtime stompin' good time, full of laughs, heartbreaks, and just plain good songwriting. "Rousing!" The New Yorker
Born and raised in the United Kingdom, Matt Roper is a comedian, writer and neo- vaudevillian who made his NYC theater debut portraying Chico Marx, eldest of the iconic
Marx Brothers, in "I'll Say She Is: The Lost Marx Brothers Musical", which played to great acclaim at the Connelly Theater earlier this year.

He regularly appears late-night under the guise of characters at the Slipper Room- Manhattan's Place of Varities - in the Lower East Side.
