Ariana and the Rose Presents: The Breakup Variety Hour Residency

Step into the glitter-filled world of The Breakup Variety Hour, the electrifying one-woman show and album from pop artist and native New Yorker Ariana and the Rose. A love letter to heartbreak, healing, and the wild ride in between, this immersive spectacle blends music, comedy, and a touch of chaos—think Carrie Bradshaw meets Bette Midler at a disco dive bar. Known for cultivating a vibrant community of women and kindred spirits, Ariana turns heartache into a high-energy, neon-lit celebration of resilience. With soaring synth-pop anthems, razor-sharp wit, and a splash of downtown glam. Premiered to a sold out Joe’s Pub in NYC, Oct 2024, The Breakup Variety Hour is more than a show—it’s a movement, a cathartic party, and the ultimate reminder that the best revenge is living fabulously.
