This time, I only had a purse, so I checked it out. It was a cute little shop that was filled by ornaments. They were very cute, and you may be able to find the one you like. I didn't buy anything as i thought it was a little pricy, but I guess it's normal for New York.

The stories definitely hit home. Thank you

The bar area was crowded before the show but the drinks were excellent and the bartender was a pro. Now on to the show: wow what a great time! I won't give away any of the storyline but it was extremely funny and the songs were well written and performed. The set design was also well done and the Bigfoot costume was amazing!! It was able to portray the mythical creature in a way I never thought possible. Turns out Bigfoot is kind, loving, funny and sensitive. I love the big guy and was rooting for him the whole night. He dances and sings with such power! I highly enjoyed my evening and I hope to come back again with friends and family. Funniest musical I've seen since Book of Mormon!!

Is it overpriced? Absolutely and they charge extra if you pay with a card. Is the food okay?…read more Sure, I don't mind grabbing some food off the hot bar here. They turn it over pretty frequently so if you come at peak times everything is fresh. This is a convenient place in midtown and I'm sure their rent is high so everything is priced accordingly. If you were willing to walk a little further you could probably find something cheaper, but let's be honest...it's easier to be lazy and just pay a little extra.

Throughout the years I've seen concerts, dance and theater, including Manhattan Theater Club, at…read moreCity Center. Some of my favorite theater experiences have been from their Encores series, including their gala productions where brilliant casts come together with about 1-2 weeks of rehearsal to perform Broadway concert style productions, complete with a full orchestra, staging, choreography and costumes. The shorter engagements allow actors to appear in shows that might fit in between other long term contracts, with tv, film, or concerts. Some Encores I've seen: La Cage aux Folles, Urinetown, Light in the Piazza, Oliver!, Into the Woods, Parade, Sunday in the Park, Evita, Brigadoon, Merrily We Roll Along, etc. Productions like Chicago, Into the Woods, Sunday in the Park, Parade, Once Upon a Mattress and Ragtime have had successful Broadway transfers from City Center. Their mission: To be an accessible and inclusive center for the arts, reflecting the energy of New York City. Encores was designed to preserve the legacy of American musical theater. Note that acoustics can be tricky depending on where you sit.

Over the years, it has…read morehoused so many wonderful shows and special events, and the venue itself truly has a classic New York charm. It's an elegant setting with great energy and a strong legacy in the arts. Unfortunately, the particular production I saw -- High Spirits -- was a real disappointment. I was surprised to see performers reading from scripts during the show. If that's the format, that's fine -- but then the ticket prices should reflect that. It's hard to justify paying Broadway-level prices for what felt like a staged reading rather than a fully polished production. I left feeling let down, especially given the venue's reputation and the cost of admission. While I still appreciate City Center as a space and its history, this experience made me hesitant about rushing back anytime soon. So so disappointed.

"Hello, Love!" This…read morewas my first perfect Broadway theater experience. And like many firsts, you cherish it. It's a well crafted drama that moves seamlessly from one story to the next. Seam...Less. So well acted. I only was familiar with Charlie Cox (Daredevil), and before the play started someone raved about Geneva Carr (Hand to God), so I was already jazzed. There's choreographed bits between acts. You might think them odd, but they were very much needed. This is a dialogue heavy character piece, with 4 chairs as your only visual distraction. Doug Hughes KNOWS the human mind, and knows that it needs a break, a palate cleanser if you will. It's a tight, balanced production that envelopes you. Well, the people in the first row... almost literally. Nice seats if you can get 'em. "3 stories. 21 characters. 4 actors." Not once did I get a character confused. The accents are spot on. Morgan Spector's flat Midwestern twang was my favorite. There was no way to confuse the characters despite the fact that there's no costume changes and a single prop, outside of the chairs. Cox and Spector age before your eyes. Cox's character being the most absolutely heart wrenching. Heather Lind provides the majority of the comic relief. I'm a little intimidated by unemployed English lawyers now. She had swagger out the ears. Though it's a balanced ensemble piece, I think Carr was the engine. Her characters brought all the angst and propelled everything forward. It was perfection. I can't find a single flaw. The length was perfect. No intermission to mess up the flow. The sound made a couple of people jump at the beginning of the choreographed bits, but I've been in louder plays that almost gave me a heart attack between every damn act like I didn't know it was coming. But I was perfectly fine with this. Gosh, I loved this play. I want to see it again.

I can see you scratch you head until you tough your brain, Incognito is a very confused broadway show that tell us the story of a pathologist that steals the brain of the greatest Albert Einstein; a neuropsychologist embarks on her first romance with another woman; a seizure patient forgets everything but how much he loves his girlfriend. Incognito braids all these mysterious stories into one, breathtaking whole that asks whether memory and identity are nothing but illusions. I will not go into much detail of this work, I can only say that very confusing and you should pay close attention from beginning to end. Thanks Ruggy, both staff Incognito and Performing Arts for this great show.

The DJ played dance music throughout the hour+ long stay, the place was packed with cheerful patrons, and the dancing was non-stop. I would have posted a video of me dancing, but I'm certain, that I would lose my Elite Badge, plus Yelp would demand an apology added to this review. Our Bartender crafted strong and well presented drinks (Strawberry Margaritas and Red Sangria), tended to us with a smile, and we appreciated her humor. If you're in the area of 55th Street and 7th Avenue on a Saturday afternoon, don't hesitate to visit Vida Verde. You'll have a fabulous time and return for more. P.S. - Vida Verde also serves a delicious and affordable weekday lunch special, which I have enjoyed and highly recommend.

Purchase our tickets online beforehand $22 for seniors and $30 for adults. Good thing as there was a line at 10:30 when they opened all of people with prepaid 10:30 a.m. tickets. Headed directly for the 5th floor with works from 1880 to 1950 including Vincent van Gogh, Henry Mattese, Claude Monet, Pablo Picasso, Alfred stieglitz, and Frank Lloyd wright. Famous individual works include Henry Matisse women dancers, Salvador Dali The persistence of memory, Claude Monet water lilies, Vincent van Gogh Starry night, and Pablo Picasso Les Demoiselles D'Avignon More modern works on the 3rd and 4th floors. Got through the entire museum seeing what we wanted to see by 11:45 a.m. Plenty of time for lunch at Blue and then the 2-hour journey by walking, subway, and air train to our gate at JFK airport

Date of visit: April 14, 2026…read more The Met's hipper cousin, The Museum of Modern Art is a New York institution, from its expansive collection to its vast and varied gift shop. If you've not been, it's definitely interesting, though your interpretation of art will likely determine just how much time you spend here. Speaking of the gift shop, there's an amazing number of things to see there, at a variety of price points, so if you're looking for a souvenir to bring back home or a gift for an upcoming event/occasion, there is a little something for everyone here. In terms of the art, again, variety is the spice of life, but it may be best to come up with a plan of attack first. The galleries themselves can be a bit labyrinthy (I know it's not a word, but it really fits here) and it's easy to miss things. Recommend going up to the top floor and working your way down, too.
