MATCHMAKER

The thought of being paired with Fred
Armisen or Jason Sudeikis during a round of Match Game leaves us a bit weak in the knees. You, on the other hand, might not be as star struck as us. Find out if you could hold your own tonight when 826NYC, the nonprofit writing program for children founded by Dave Eggers, revives this once popular television game show in which contestants match answers to fill-in-the-blank questions. A drawing determines which lucky guests will be picked to play with guests Armisen, Sudeikis, Olivia Wilde, Wyatt Cenac, Eugene Mirman, and Jon Benjamin. The player with the most matches wins an iPad Mini and a ton of bragging rights. Comedian Leo Allen hosts the evening, which also includes an auction and—why not?—a Betty White look-alike contest
