Grammy-nominated for his latest album, Justin Roberts is truly one of the “all-stars” of the indie family music scene.

Called a “kid-friendly bilingual rock star” by The Washington Post and “irresistible” by People magazine, Mister G has been named one of the “Best Live Acts for Kids and Families.” Finding Neverland is Broadway’s soaring hit musical that tells the enchanting story of how Peter became Pan.

Starting out as Hip Hop dancers the duo would meet at a classic battle competition where they would forge a friendship that has lasted over 30 years.

Concert | Los Soneros de Oriente, Cuban Salsa Group


Los Soneros de Oriente is a New York city-based group specializing in the Cuban Són – a folk style that forms much of the basis for modern salsa - for more than 30 years. The music, rooted in African-based rhythms and tunes performed on Cuban folk instruments, began in the 1880's, in the Oriente Province. When workers migrated to the cities, they incorporated Spanish influences to create a unique Cuban music using harmony vocals, percussion, trumpets, piano, bass, and guitars, that soon became the most popular music of not only the working classes, but of Cubans on all levels of society. Los Soneros de Oriente brings with delight traditional Cuban music, a treasure that remains pulsing through you long after the show.

Performance | Manhattan Shakespeare Project presents Al-'ukhraa: A Study in Othello


Manhattan Shakespeare Project is back with a very personal piece created in part with NYC’s young Muslim high school women. Through personal accounts written by Muslim girls and Shakespeare’s text of Othello, Al’ukhraa explores how our opinions of “the other” effect the community as a whole, and how the current political climate of fear is directly impacting our NYC high school girls. Bring a blanket. Bring a picnic. They perform rain or shine. They will never cancel a show before showtime. So come on out! Bring a slicker, bring an umbrella. Some of their best shows have been in mysterious and foggy weather.

Play | Hudson Warehouse presents Aristophanes' Lysistrata


Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, Aristophanes' Lysistrata is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end the Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata persuades the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands and lovers as a means of forcing the men to negotiate peace—a strategy, however, that inflames the battle between the sexes. The play is notable for being an early exposé of sexual relations in a male-dominated society. This outdoor production, subtitled "Let's Make America Great Again," is adapted and directed by Susane Lee. June 30-July 24, Thursday through Sunday nights.

The skeletal remains of the High Line’s elevated tracks set the perfect scene for a spooky evening. Join a journey to the creepier side of New York City’s most unique park.

If the moon hangs right perhaps you’ll witness the spectacle of a ghostly ship floating down the Hudson River; is it the long forgotten crew of Henry Hudson’s Half-Moon warning sailors not to go to sea? Or is it Captain Kidd protecting the treasure he buried on Liberty Island? Venture at your own risk through the dark side of High Line.
