Philadelphia's freewheeling, progressive theater company, Pig Iron, will bring its annual benefit cabaret and auction to the Trocadero this Friday. But what's with the event's hammy name, "Hams Across America"? "We're nerds who love wordplay," says Pig Iron star Dito van Reigersberg. "And the campaign in the '80s that tried to make a human chain across the country. And failed. We also love failure."

Fri., Jan. 29, 7 p.m., $25-$75, Trocadero, 1003 Arch St., 215-922-6888, thetroc.com.
