Since the brilliant Jacqueline Novak has been performing her lauded and acclaimed solo show, Get On Your Knees, directed by the also brilliant John Early, years before the pandemic, it seems as though she has been doing the hysterical poesy of her hour long show about the sexual politics of blowjobs for at least a decade. We’ve had the expressed privilege of seeing it several forms in different venues and enjoyed the exclusive privilege of seeing it become the juggernaut of a solo show that it has around the world.

So, it only stands to reason that it should be shot as a special to be shown to even more folks, right?

Thankfully, that’s happening this Summer after what must be hundreds of performances at this point. Novak will be taping Get On Your Knees to cap off one final run of the show at Town Hall in NYC on Jun. 9th. There will be an early show at 7PM, which is already sold out, but you can still snag tickets for a 10PM show at $42 a pop right now (and we highly suggest not waiting).

Some of you might have been lucky enough to catch Jacqueline Novak here in LA work on what is now going to be a full-fledged Off-Broadway show, Get On Your Knees. 

Certainly, there has been plenty of buzz about this exquisite show (Mike Birbiglia and Natasha Lyonne have attached their names as well as John Early set as director) have attached the that dissects the concept of the blowjob since Jacqueline has been “quietly” workshopping it around LA over the last few months. We caught it for ourselves a few months ago and it truly was a magnificent exploration of something that’s normally reserved for the arena of mere “dick jokes”. 

Get On Your Knees will indeed be headed to the Cherry Lane Theatre in NYC this Summer, but you really ought to keep tabs on Jacqueline’s Twitter and Instagram so you might just get one last chance to catch this like on Jun. 20th at Lyric Hyperion.
