What to do and see in Downtown Manhattan (Downtown), New York (NY): The Best Concerts & Shows
Conquering New York in one visit is impossible. Instead, hit the must-sees – the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, Central Park, the Metropolitan Museum of Art – and then explore off the beaten path with visits to The Cloisters or one of the city’s libraries. Indulge in the bohemian shops of the West Village or the fine dining of the Upper West Side. The bustling marketplace inside of Grand Central Station gives you a literal taste of the best the city has to offer.

It has been many years since I attended a performance at the Public Theatre and this was the first time for my wife. We were most fortunate to see one of the last performances of “Mother of the Maid” with the fantastic Glenn Close and an excellent supporting cast of actors. Our seats in the center of row G on the right side of the theatre had excellent sight lines and were very comfortable. Although I try not to pay full price for theatre, on this occasion I had to but it was well worth the $95, although a fee of $7 per ticket was, I consider, somewhat high but living in South Carolina, I had no choice.

Experimental theater.
Reviewed By toma139 - Newtown, United States
Theater for the New City is dedicated to presenting outstanding new plays and musicals. The executive director, Crystal Field, is dedicated to discovering new American playwrights. She is a distinguished playwright herself. So she's the ideal person to judge the work of others. The theater hosts the annual Lower East Side Festival of the Arts and has won many awards, among them the Pulitzer Prize for Drama for commissioning and presenting Sam Shepard’s Buried Child. Since it's a publicly funded theater, supported by civic and private benefactors, tickets are very reasonable, usually in the $15 range.

Went to see Kate Hamil's brilliant new adaptation of Pride and Prejudice at this cool theater. Established by Edna St. Millay to support innovative new plays, this theater consistently puts on high quality plays by recognized play writes. Plus the location in the West Village can't be beat!
