Val-o-Ween: Part 3D

"228 Presents: Val-O-ween 2026!"

228 Productions' spooktacular spin on nobody's favorite heart-shaped holiday is BACK... at its original location at The Gem... on actual V-Night, no less! This year's theme channels the fun & chaos of ska-punk and rock, in the ectoplasmic forms of The Amorphous Blob Orchestra, The What Nows?!, and BEES -- as well as the eye-popping return of sepulchral siren Penelope Rose!*

(a burlesque mini-set to follow each act*)

8pm) Having conquered time and space, Philly arcade rockers BEES now set their sights on finding out what happens when fans scream their band name in a crowded music hall! https://linktr.ee/beesphilly

9pm) THE WHAT NOWS?! is a high-energy ska-punk band based out of Reading, Pennsylvania. With a sound blending everything from toe-tapping and head-banging, to "what the hell is happening?!," they've cemented themselves as a powerhouse of PA punk! https://linktr.ee/thewhatnows

10pm) Punkity-ska supergroup THE AMORPHOUS BLOB ORCHESTRA pays to leave Jersey and headline Val-O-ween 2026, so we're gonna be super supportive by scarfing up their merch. All the black band t-shirts for all the weirdos!

For more than a decade PENELOPE ROSE has been thrilling audiences with their distinctive style of burlesque and their derriere magnifique. This Phoenixville themme-fatale has an extensive background in the performing arts. Like their town's namesake, Penny continually transforms each show with a unique erotic performance sure to make you thorny.

All-ages, but under 18 must be accompanied by an adultey-type. Costumes encouraged! (Except it's not really a "costume" if you dress in black every day, is it?) Thanks for supportin' our weirdo scene, and look out (LOOK OUT!!) for more strange collabs between The Gem and 228 Productions!
