INFO + TICKETS

I don't know about you, but I tend to love puppetry just on general principle.  In any event, La Mama does a good job each year of selecting worthwhile genre-stretching work for its Puppet Festival.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  I don't know why, but I'm suddenly overcome with an overwhelming urge to go to the Ukrainian East Village Restaurant (the one in the Ukrainian National Home) -- an urge I now inflict on you.  You can't have a bad time here.  Some day I'll tell you about the night I was there and they were having a milonga in the back room, so all these people kept passing through the very Ukrainian dining room in tango gear.  I love this City.
