Aaaah! It’s a Pee-wee-kend!
And Yes… This Is Really Happening.
Pee-wee-kend Is Here!
For one unforgettable weekend, the Playhouse doors swing open again—bringing together the artists, characters, and pure imagination that made Pee-wee’s Playhouse a cultural phenomenon.
Whether you’re here for the secrets, the spectacle, or the sheer delight of it all, Pee-wee-kend is your all-access pass to nostalgia, creativity, and a little bit of beautiful chaos.
Across two nights, you’ll witness a historic character reveal, hear firsthand stories from the artists who built the Playhouse, and celebrate the weird, wonderful world that changed kids’ television forever.
Globey’s Big Debut
Be There When a Legend Returns
May 23 | 6-9 PM
For the first time in nearly 40 years, one of the Playhouse’s most beloved characters is back. Globey, friend, icon, and unforgettable face of the Playhouse, makes his long-awaited return in a historic public unveiling.
Join Alison Mork, Kevin Carlson, and Christine Papalexis for a one-night-only celebration as the original Season One Globey puppet, newly conserved, takes his place in the Center’s permanent collection.
For those who grew up with the Playhouse, this isn’t just a reveal, it’s a reunion.
Limited to just 100 guests. When it’s full… it’s full.
40 Years of Pee-wee’s Playhouse
The Reunion You Never Thought You’d See
May 24 | (Doors at 6 PM | Show at 7 PM)
The next night, the celebration continues with an extremely rare East Coast panel event featuring the creators behind Pee-wee’s Playhouse.
Alison Mork, Kevin Carlson, and Christine Papalexis take the stage for a lively, laugh-filled evening of behind-the-scenes stories, untold moments, surprise appearances, and the kind of playful nonsense only the Playhouse could inspire.
This is more than a panel—it’s a living piece of television history.
Don’t Miss Your Chance
Two nights. Two extraordinary events. One delightfully absurd weekend.
Join us for the Pee-wee-kend where the Playhouse lives again.
