PROGRESS REPORT: OPENING LATERISH
In Progress Report: Opening Soonish, I looked at the businesses due to open in the next month and a half. Here’s what’s farther out on the horizon. One caveat: A lot of the info is from months ago and is unconfirmable.
CALENDAR: AUG. 17–SEPT. 6
This week in greater Tribeca: Marie Hueston (The All-American Jump and Jive Jig) performs for kids; Tribeca Meet & Greet at Dash Gallery (everyone is welcome); “Meet the Lady: Pearl Bailey!”; Marshall Crenshaw; a discussion about Egon Schiele’s “Portrait of Wally”; The Muppet Movie (free and outdoors); Comedy Below Canal; Frederick Wiseman’s 1969 doc Law & Order; Rhett Miller; more.
NOT YOUR AVERAGE MAMA DRAMA
“Underneath the talk about breasts, sex, and seduction lies a whip-smart feminist with a Ph.D from Columbia,” writes Anojja Shah about Anna Fishbeyn (left), whose one-woman show, Sex in Mommyville, opens tomorrow at the Flea. (Buy tickets today and save 20%.)
