Welcome to the Sparkle Hour. This joyous variety show, hosted by Philip 'Sparkle,' features his favorite queers taking the stage with stand-up, song, dance, and surprises galore in a cynicism-free space. Leave the irony at the door, honey. It's Gay Church!

"Yes, this will get whimsical." - The New York Times
"In a comedy scene oversaturated with irony and cynicism, improv master Philip Markle invites you to indulge in blissful inanity at this absolutely batshit variety hour, featuring life-affirming wisdom from Markle, visceral humor from a crazed coterie of avant-garde performers and spectacular dance breaks." - Time Out New York
"Bolting through the audience and bounding on to the stage with the conviction of a tent revival evangelist, Philip Markle quickly wins over the audience with his enthusiasm. Mr. Markle brilliantly balances the glittery outrageousness of his performance style with amazing storytelling skill. Coming out of his shell with vim and vigor, Markle brings home the message of “Be yourself, love yourself” at the heart of Sparkle Hour! ” -NYTheatre.com
