Ghost Stories by Gaslight with the Bowery Boys (coming 10/20/26)
Join Greg Young and Tom Meyers of the Bowery Boys for this spooky journey back to Old New York, a gaslit city where so much happened in the shadows. Every year, Greg and Tom perform their live show at Joe’s Pub, the former Astor Library. Is it haunted? Does the ghost of Edgar Allen Poe still wander the reaches of today’s Bronx? And what about a certain townhouse near today’s Washington Square Park in Greenwich Village that seems to be home to a number of spectators from the past — even today? This show is guaranteed to send a chill down your spine!
