THE PEE-WEE HERMAN SHOW 1981 PAUL REUBENS PHIL HARTMAN LYNNE MARIE STEWART ROXY THEATER WEST HOLLYWOOD NIGHT CLUB STAGE SHOW TRIBUTE DVD-R!

The Pee-wee Herman Show is a stage show developed by Paul Reubens in 1980. The show is the first significant appearance of Reubens’ fictional comic character Pee-wee Herman. The show debuted as a midnight show in February 1981 at the Groundlings theater, and was later moved to the Roxy Theatre in West Hollywood, California, in September of that same year, where the HBO cable network taped one of the shows and aired it as a special. The nightclub show had more adult humor than the later children’s television eries Pee-wee’s Playhouse. The Pee-wee Herman Show was developed when Paul Reubens was one of twenty-two finalists to be chosen as a regular on Saturday Night Live, which was the infamous first season of an all-new cast, and one of five seasons without the show’s creator, Lorne Michaels, as a producer. Reubens thought his career was over when Gilbert Gottfried was chosen over him. According to Reubens, he was about to return home when he came up with the idea of a stage show featuring his character he had premiered in 1977, Pee-wee Herman. https://dvdrparty.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/ppp.mp3 Originally released in 1981, a vinyl 12″ one-sided hand silk-screened picture disc was released of the performance by Fatima Recordz. The cover features a drawing of Pee-wee by Gary Panter, who would later win three Emmy Awards for his set design on Pee-wee’s Playhouse. Silk-screening was done by Richard Duardo but the design of the sleeve and of the album was done by Gary Panter. The paper sleeve states that it was recorded at the Roxy Theater, L.A. June 1981.
