A Couple of Ways to Keep Busy in NYC!

Maspeth, NY 718-416-1656 

Are you looking for events in New York City to keep busy this summer? There are plenty of events happening in NYC that are sure to interest you! Here is a list of some events happening now, courtesy of gothamist.

Broadway ticket prices are outrageously expensive, but you can listen to the biggest hits from current on-and-off-Broadway shows for free at Broadway in Bryant Park! Thursdays starting July 12, performers from shows like Spider Man, The Gershwins' Porgy and Bess, Wicked and Anything Goes will belt out musical numbers over your lunch hour.

The Lincoln Center Festival which will run July 5 through August 5, seeks to showcase the most innovative and unique of what we understand to be the classical performance arts. This year’s festival will feature performances from France, Scotland and China, as well as the great US of A, of course. Check out Alan Cummings in Macbeth, Cate Blanchett in Uncle Vanya, and Mykhail Baryshnikov in In Paris.

If you’re into movies, Wednesday night River Flicks is just the place for you! Classified as "For Grownups," the series kicks off July 11 with the comparably tame titles Moneyball and Super 8 then quickly jumps to the decidedly more adult Bridesmaids. All the films are show on the Pier 63 Lawn in Chelsea and although you are welcome to bring a picnic, River Flicks provides free popcorn during the movie!
