John Wesley Harding: Cabinet of Wonders
“Perpetually entertaining!”—The New Yorker
John Wesley Harding leads a variety show with nationally renowned and emerging musicians, writers, raconteurs, and comedians.
A little bit vaudeville, a little bit rock ‘n’ roll, and a whole lot of fun, Cabinet of Wonders is a “perpetually entertaining” (The New Yorker), irreverent, and entertaining variety show with celebrated musicians, writers, and comedians. Each show is a unique, witty, and intimate compendium of brilliant musical performances, robust storytelling, engaging repartee, and surprising collaborations.
Weaving everything together is Cabinet founder Harding, who conceived of the show as a way to bring his novel-writing friends (who envy his musician friends) together with his musician friends (who envy his novel-writing friends). It will make you laugh, think, and sing along, sometimes all at once.
