With the strike in full swing, “30 Rock” and “Saturday Night Live” casts will perform live performances this weekend in New York at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater. Proceeds from the ticket sales will go to a strike fund. “Saturday Night Live” will be performed Saturday at 11:30PM, while the “30 Rock” performance is scheduled for Monday at 8PM. “Superbad” and “Arrested Development” star Michael Cera will guest host the “SNL” performance. The shows are sold out.

Amy Poehler, of “SNL,” said in a statement, “We are doing this to raise spirits, raise awareness and raise money for our hardworking production crews who will be having a hard holiday season if this strike continues.”
