We Ought to Be In Pictures
Long-time fans of our group know we’ve sometimes invited artists to join us to sketch or paint us while we hang out. Recently, someone told us about a site called “Fiverr,” where artists hang out. So...

Spring Ahead!
What’s that tickle in our collective noses? Could it be…allergy season? Yes: a glance at the calendar confirms it, the days get an hour longer this Sunday, and suddenly warm weather isn’t a freak...

Body and Pole
Okay — that early advent of spring-like weather didn’t last very long: tomorrow and Monday it’s supposed to snow. (Although by the end of the week it’s going to be in the 70s again. WTF?) In the...

Summer is Coming! Are You…?
Since the summer of 2011, our book club has been meeting in parks and other public places around New York City to read, relax and enjoy the sun in the company of like-minded women. We’re students and...

Body of Art
We number among our members people from all conceivable backgrounds and walks of life (check out our last post for some examples), but perhaps not surprisingly many of our members are involved with the...

Sunday, Monday
Eighty degrees. Who cares that the calendar says it’s still spring, not summer? It was eighty degrees this Monday, and sunny af (as the kids say), and we’ve got the incipient tans to prove it. All...

The Nice Guys

After the Storm
Well! That was an adventure. It’s not every day that we’re the #1 trending topic on Facebook. Or written about by the Daily News, the Associated Press, three British newspapers (the Independent, the...

Two Video Pieces on our Tempest
After all the media coverage our production of The Tempest received — newspaper after newspaper, website after website — we didn’t think it could get any better. But we were wrong. Salon just ran a...

The Street, Fair
Happy Memorial Day, everyone. This marks the (unofficial) start of summer, and with it the start of street fair season, when New Yorkers — if they don’t flee the city entirely on weekends — spend their...

Rock Out
What else did we do over the Memorial Day weekend? (Other than enjoying a street fair on Broadway.) Well, we went to a lovely park — not saying where — and found a lovely secluded boulder — not saying...

It’s Charlie’s World, We Just Live In It
“Lucky dog,” wrote one fan of ours on our Facebook page, when we posted photos from our most recent day out. Was she speaking metaphorically? Not a bit. There was an actual dog in the photo, he’s two...

Back to the Books
You may have noticed a rather paltry number of books in our recent book club photos. No real reason for this, beyond the self-evident one that it’s hard to read when you’re playing with a puppy or...

Escape the Room
We’re always hunting for interesting, cool things to do around NYC, and when someone told us about Escape the Room we totally had to try it. Fortunately, they were happy to have us come by and play...

Come Exercise Your Rights With Us
The last time you saw Central Park’s Summit Rock on our blog, it was because we were performing The Tempest for what turned out to be an audience of millions (thank you, media!). This past week, we...

Preconceived Notions
On Father’s Day, we went out to Central Park on the stroller-friendly Upper West Side, somewhat unsure of the reception we’d get. Would families out celebrating in the sun welcome us or not? When...

Your First Time

Remember What It Stands For, Officers
So, for the Fourth of July, we got a group together and headed down to Battery Park, in view of the Statue of Liberty, for a picnic on the grass. No better time for it, right? Statue of Liberty, Fourth...
