THEATER NEWS by Francis Lewis
“Oslo” (left), about the top-secret meetings between Israel and the PLO that led to the 1993 Oslo Accords, is a rarity: a thought-provoking and entertaining political thriller. “Theater and politics can both be transformative when they expand the scope of who and what is being listened to,” says playwright J.T. Rogers. “Both have the ability to deepen our empathy toward those whom we may at first view as our enemies, but whom we can come to see are both like us and twined with us.” Collaboration is key, agrees Bartlett Sher, the play’s director: “We are doing a piece about an important subject in order to teach ourselves, and to help ourselves understand the situation better. Let’s hope that translates into audiences entering the negotiation with us for a better future.” | “Oslo,” Vivian Beaumont Theater at Lincoln Center, 150 W. 65th St., 212.239.6200
Dreamer In “Amélie,” the new Broadway musical based on the popular 2001 film of the same name, Phillipa Soo (below, with co-star Adam Chanler-Berat) plays the title character, a young woman finding her way in the world. Amélie is a dreamer, and so is Soo, who admits: “I love to dream. But not about what’s next,” she quickly adds, “but about what is so wonderful about what is happening now. There’s something hard about living in New York because we’re always rushing from one thing to the next. We need to step back, see how amazing everything is and find the joy and love that is in the world.” | “Amélie,” Walter Kerr Theatre, 219 W. 48th St., 877.250.2929
Eternal Optimist
Christy Altomare (above, with co-star Derek Klena) identifies with her character, Anya, in the Broadway musical “Anastasia.” For one thing, they’re both optimistic, a necessary survival tool for the actress and the woman she brings to life eight performances a week: an amnesiac street sweeper in Russia, who may be the last surviving daughter of the Romanov dynasty. They share this, too: a passion to go to Paris. Since wishes come true onstage and off, before rehearsals began, Christy went to Paris for the first time. Check her out on Instagram, standing, like Anya, on the Alexandre III bridge ready to burst into song. | “Anastasia,” Broadhurst Theatre, 235 W. 44th St., 212.239.6200

Designer Everything
There’s something about consignment shopping that makes the find special. This is especially true at Designer Revival, an Upper East Side mainstay, where you’re never quite sure what you’ll find, but more than likely it’ll be good. The luxury shop’s collection of new and vintage apparel and accessories changes daily—you might find yourself coveting rare cream-colored leather gloves from Hermès and pleated dresses from Chanel on your first visit, or slipping on Manolo Blahnik pumps and strappy sandals from Aquazzura (pictured) on your next. Handbag collectors, get excited: You might get lucky and score a Birkin bag (above). Shoppers who’d prefer not to spend five figures, though, can scoop up more accessibly priced Ferragamo crossbody bags, Armani clutches and Mulberry satchels. | Designer Revival, 324 E. 81st St., 212.734.3639
Dream Home The recently opened Herman Miller flagship store is like an Architectural Digest photo shoot come to life. Part showroom, part store, the airy space feels like a midcentury modernist fan’s dream home—sofas are piled with pillows in eclectic color palettes and patterns, cacti and objets d’art top coffee tables that look straight out of “The Jetsons,” and bedroom furniture sets are displayed with cheerful rugs, round mirrors and ceramic sculptures. You’ll leave with the well-designed goods—and creative inspiration— you need to reinvigorate your home. | Herman Miller, 251 Park Ave. So., 212.318.3977

What’s trending on the foodie scene by Lois Levine
It’s fun observing the changing fashion of restaurants: Over the last couple of years, communal hightops became all the rage. More recently, I’ve noticed a move toward rustic, yet handsome environs like the recently opened Northern Italian/Southern French Italienne (19 W. 24th St., 212.600.5139), where Edison bulbs hang on thick ropes and wood floors gleam. Casual café by day, moody bar by night is how to describe nearby Pondicheri (15 W. 27th St., 646.878.4375). Stop in for breakfast or lunch and a taste of street food from all regions of India: coconut pancakes, samosas and masala wings (with yogurt and ginger in a chickpea crust); come back at night for waiter service and craft cocktails like the Crocus Sativus, made with gin and saffron tinctures. Recently, I had the pleasure of treating my collegeage son to his first Daniel Boulud meal at DB Bistro (55 W. 44th St., 212.391.2400): What a proud mama I was, watching him choose the signature burger, made with braised short ribs, black truffles and foie gras. But the magic of Daniel Boulud’s restaurant group doesn’t end there: at Boulud Sud (1 Lincoln Plz., 212.595.1313), his Mediterranean restaurant near Lincoln Center, there is a pasta happy hour: housemade pastas, from 9 pm to close, at halfprice. With a manifesto straight out of the Whole Foods playbook, Le Botaniste (833 Lexington Ave., 917.262.0766) vows to be “a responsible food concept that cares about health and our planet.” Simple, good offerings include vegetable tajines, Tibetan rice bowls and chia seed pudding. And finally, a visit to the newly relocated Union Square Cafe (101 E. 19th St., 212.243.4020) proved that the restaurant is still a superstar. Winners all around included a starter of cauliflower sformato; a spectacular main course was a dish of buttery rainbow trout with leafy greens. For dessert? Don’t miss the banana tart.

Games Gone Wild
If battling zombies from “The Walking Dead,” chasing ghosts in Pac-Man and racing your way to victory in Mario Kart sounds like a night out, you’re in luck at Dave & Buster’s. The Times Square arcade boasts more than 100 video games in a flashy, casino-like environment. Set your kids up with a few game cards—they will love trying games like Dance Dance Revolution, Tailgate Toss and Pop-A-Shot and collecting tickets for prizes. Dave & Buster’s also has a stacked bar and plenty of shareable snacks (pretzelwrapped hot dogs, mini spareribs and cheesy spinach dip) that will satisfy any gaming-induced craving. Pro tip: Downing a couple of “Coronaritas” (bottles of Corona dunked in frozen margaritas) will make your Skee-Ball competitions all the more epic. | 234 W. 42nd St., 3rd fl., 646.495.2015

Swanky Digs
The interior design at the Upper East Side’s Mark Bar is just as exciting as the drinks. Esteemed French designer Jacques Grange, who has decorated for fashion moguls Valentino Garavani, Karl Lagerfeld and Yves Saint Laurent, put his distinctive touch on every inch of the unabashedly swanky space, from the cowhide lounge chairs and chrome tables shaped like spots on cows to the twinkling ceiling lights and curvy backlit bar that’s cool enough for James Bond himself. The expertly crafted drink menu puts creative twists on the classics. (Clockwise from bottom): The margarita is rimmed with ginger-salt for a zingy kick; the old-fashioned explodes with sour cherry flavor and the martini complements the flavors of gin botanicals with fresh cucumber and mint. | 25 E. 77th St., 212.606.3030

With just 75 seats in the space, you can get intimately close to Dan White’s tricks in his show “The Magician” at the NoMad Hotel. But despite an up-close view—or even participating in the act yourself— you won’t have a clue how the magician, who has worked with David Blaine, David Copperfield and even Kanye West, completes his deceptive feats of visual and mental intrigue. Without giving too much away, White seems to levitate his assistant off the ground, inherently know what destination an audience member is thinking of and bring it up on their iPhone map, and perform extraordinary card tricks. Clearly, this modern Houdini has more than a few tricks up his sleeve. | NoMad Hotel, 1170 Broadway, 212.796.1500

FASCINATING ART DISPLAYS by Terry Trucco

The Glass Menagerie Glass is usually categorized as craft, not art. But artists are redefining this ancient medium, bypassing bowls and bottles for sculpture, marrying it with materials like metal and wood and reveling in the magic achieved by mixing molten sand, minerals and imagination. With shows around town including a Dale Chihuly extravaganza at the New York Botanical Garden, glass is having a New York moment. (1) As an art student, Chihuly protégé Michael Glancy discovered glassmaking and never looked back. Using cold glass, he carves complex cellular structures, adding layers of copper, silver or gold. In “Proof: The Alchemist Transmutation” (2016), Glancy sets an intricately patterned vessel atop a platform, an effect former Corning Museum of Glass curator Tina Oldknow compares to “a figure in a landscape.” Heller Gallery, 303 10th Ave., 212.414.4014, April 21-May 26 (2) Glass art takes many forms. Consider Norbert Brunner’s mischievous “Breathe” (detail, 2017) combining a silkscreen, mirror, LED lights and Swarovski crystals. By deliberately distorting the viewer’s reflection, Brunner poses questions about the reality we see in a mirror. Claire Oliver Gallery, 513 W. 26th St., 212.929.5949, April 13-May13 (3) With 20 installations harmonizing with an exquisite landscape, “Chihuly” envelops you in the boundary-pushing work of a master glassblower fascinated by contrasts

4 between glass and the environment. Note how the artist situates his sensuous “Blue Herons” (2006), created for his first NYBG show, in the 1902 Enid A. Haupt Conservatory, itself a work of glass art. New York Botanical Garden, 2900 Southern Blvd., Bronx, 718.817.8700, April 22-Oct. 29 (4) “It’s like a life-size umbrella,” says gallery director Simon Abrahms of Robert Mickelsen’s fanciful “Parasol” (2009), rendered in deceptively lacy lampworked glass. As part of “Lit,” it helps show the extraordinary range and inventiveness of contemporary glass. Chesterfield Gallery, 109 Norfolk St., 212.388.0609, April 15-May 15

MAKING A
Returning to Broadway after 11 years, Mark Ruffalo lends his Everyman intensity to an Arthur Miller classic. By Bob Cannon 16
IN NEW YORK | APRIL 2017 | INNEWYORK.COM
PHOTOS: MARK RUFFALO, MAARTEN DE BOER/GETTY IMAGES; MARK RUFFALO AND JESSICA HECHT IN “THE PRICE,” JOAN MARCUS
IF VARIETY IS THE SPICE OF LIFE, then Mark Ruffalo’s career is a true delicacy. The darkly handsome film veteran, who opened March 16 at Broadway’s American Airlines Theatre in Arthur Miller’s “The Price,” has been a constant presence on the big screen for the last 20 years, lending an earthy touch to a wide range of characters, from complex intellectuals to the Incredible Hulk in Marvel’s Avengers franchise. “The Price” is Ruffalo’s first Broadway turn since 2006’s “Awake and Sing!” and co-stars Danny DeVito, Jessica Hecht and Tony Shalhoub. Ruffalo’s initial involvement, though, came about by chance. “The [latest] Avengers was pushed back several months,” he explains. “And a day or so after I hear the news, I was lamenting to a friend about it and said, ‘Honestly, all I want right now, if I could have the dream of dreams, would be to be on a stage in an ensemble play with great writing, no bells and whistles. Just actors and people that I really knew and loved and trusted. And where I wasn’t Mark Ruffalo and Jessica Hecht in “The Price.” the star of it, and it wasn’t a big to-do.’ And the next mornAdler Conservatory and coing I had this offer!” founded the Orpheus Theatre Ruffalo’s entry into acting Company, all while auditioncame about in much the same ing and tending bar. haphazard manner.

as an actor.” A major role in “The Last Castle” followed. “There I was with one of my heroes, Robert Redford, doing this walk-and-talk,” Ruffalo recalls. “I’m like, ‘This is my wildest dream come true!’ And then I found out I had a brain tumor.” The tumor , discovered in 2001, turned out to be benign, but the surgery left Ruffalo temporarily paralyzed on one side of his face. It was a blessing in disguise, he later said, because it allowed him to take other roles, that wound up being better for him. “My friends have a term, getting ‘Ruffaloed.’ It’s when you have what seems to be bad luck that actually turns into good luck later.” Those plums of luck came quickly in succession: He earned Oscar nominations for 2010’s “The Kids Are All Right,” 2014’s “Foxcatcher” and 2015’s “Spotlight;” and
an Emmy for gay activist Ned Weeks in HBO’s “The Normal Heart” in 2014. His A-list status has also given him a chance to embark on political causes like climate change and the fight against hydrofracking. The latter came about when Ruffalo and his wife, actress Sunrise Coigney, along with their three children, moved to upstate New York in 2008. “I call myself an accidental environmentalist,” he says. “We moved to let the kids experience clean water and air but instead ended up in the middle of a hydrofracking region.” He co-founded The Solutions Project, which works to move the country toward 100 percent renewable energy. The family’s Upper West Side apartment is home base for the duration of his Broadway run. Despite the fame, Ruffalo remains the guy who takes the subway instead of a limo. And he says his propensity for playing brainy, complex characters has its roots in childhood. “As a kid, I was dyslexic,” he says. “I had a hard time in school. I was brutalized by the nuns and made to feel like a dummy. And it’s been a lifelong ambition to prove to myself, along with the rest of the world, that I wasn’t.” For Ruffalo, there’s no better way to prove them wrong than going onstage and feeling the rush of a performance. “It all happens in real time,” he says, “I always say that the stage is an actor’s medium—it really is acting at its purest. I think, ‘The Price’ is probably Arthur Miller’s greatest play. It pushed me outside of my comfort zone. An actor should do that once in a while—even if you are The Hulk!”

Meet Nicole Fischelis, Group Vice President, Creative Director and Global Forecaster for Macy’s Inc. Her job is to predict, more than a year in advance, what the trends will be. Raised in Paris, Fischelis says she was truly a “free spirit. I always was interested in art and culture.” She works far ahead—when she spoke to IN New York a few weeks ago, she was busy working on predicting trends for Fall 2018. Here is what she has to say about the hottest

new looks for this spring and summer for men and women. IN New York: What are the most dramatic trends right now? Fischelis: The major one is the “New Romantic.” The whole mood of ruffles, lace—it’s super feminine. There are lots of pink and nude shades. It uses many different types of texture: lace, brocade, pretty florals. Another trend is what I like to call “Urban Energy.” What’s great about it is the way it’s done. It’s activewear meets streetwear, and a whole new level of cool. Track pants with a great tailored

jacket. Jumpsuits, bright colors and logos, stripes and 1990s-inspired are all part of this. There is also some shine and silver. Next is “Safari Chic.” It has jungle prints, rescaled and recolored, all shades of khaki and tie-dye. Looks showing ethnicity and globalism. Spicy shades, summer brights, whimsical animal prints and cartoons. Things that make you smile. And the last one is “More is More.” It’s the complete opposite of minimalism—it’s maximalism. It’s very “attitude,” with clashing combinations. It says, “Look at me!” Embellished, oversize denim and a vintage finds mixed together. Some colors are almost neon. IN New York: Would you say the trends are age-specific? Fischelis: Today it’s more about attitude than age. It’s how you feel and individualism. You can wear one trend one day, and another one the next, or fuse them together in your own way. You can wear a moto [motorcycle] jacket over a slip or a lace blouse. I’ve seen it on the runway, and it’s happening.
IN New York: Any trends for men? Fischelis: I am seeing women wearing menswear and men wearing women’s prints. It’s not “dressing like him and her.” It’s floral and animal prints, whimsical, conversational types of print, about mood and influences.

Jason Wu
IN New York: Speaking of color, what is “the” color this spring? Fischelis: All shades of pink, from pale to very bright. It’s great when you start combining tonalities in one outfit. That goes for men, women, kids, accessories and home. And also metallic shine is very big. Yellow is going to be the “it” color this summer … it will be just as big as pink.
Balmain
IN New York: You work so far ahead— how do you “see”? Fischelis: It’s a combination of what you see on the runway and on the street, or in a movie or a museum. I look for the unexpected. Sometimes, I see a very unusual color on one runway in New York and then again in another city. I try to put it all together and make it sing.

he spa world is forever coming up with new ideas: Shea-butter body wraps, kelp-powered facials and green-caviar skin-care products are a part of the newest crop of skin-enhancing treatments from nature, formulated to make you look better and feel just plain blissful. Here is a roundup of some of the best around. In need of a respite from the frenetic pace of lower Manhattan? Float into the Spa at the Four Seasons New York Downtown (27 Barclay St., 646.880.1999), where seven softly lit treatment rooms and a suite for couples set a serene atmosphere for soothing experiences. The offerings include deep-tissue massages, salt body scrubs and mud wraps, but the real draw is the skin care. The spa has partnered with luxury skin-care brands Omorovicza and Dr. Burgener Switzerland to create eight distinctive facials that use surprising ingredients, like green caviar and gold, reported to stimulate collagen synthesis, among other results. There’s also a 75-foot indoor lap pool flanked by two-story windows, should you feel enticed by a dip with a view. With its year-round ice rink, rock climbing wall, golf club and bowling alley, Chelsea Piers has made a name for itself as a place to play. But you might begin to consider it as a place for pampering as well, once you discover the Paul Labrecque Salon & Spa (Pier 60, 2nd fl., W. 20th St. & Hudson River Park, 212.988.7816), tucked within the Sports Center. The salon is best known by its female clients as the place to go for precision cuts, hair extensions and hair-removal services, while men favor its nail services, cuts, hot shaves and skin care. The spa also offers an extensive selection of treatments for both, like facials, mud body wraps, Reiki, acupuncture and massages (including medical massages for sciatica and bursitis). Spend $75 and get complimentary access to the Sports Center.

If you Zen out on glitz and over-the-top luxury, instead of the minimalist, airy spaces at most spas, you’ll feel right at home at The Sisley-Paris Spa (35 E. 76th St., 3rd fl., 212.660.7560). Located within The Carlyle, the space is all about opulence—crystal chandeliers crown the lobby, while a glittery, domed stairway brings guests to tranquil treatment rooms with gray lacquered walls. Facials, a highlight of the treatments, use plant extracts to soften the skin and brighten the complexion, while the spa’s body treatments include aromatic essential oils. At Modrn Sanctuary (12 W. 27th St., 9th fl., 212.675.9355), a new wellness center in NoMad, guests find a menu of treatments that heal the mind just as much as the body. The luxurious spa, with black crocodile-textured walls and antique Balinese doors, offers a range of traditional and alternative treatments, such as hypnotherapy, acupuncture, Thai body work and customized Ayurvedic care. At press time, Modrn Sanctuary was set to open a therapeutic Himalayan salt room, which is designed to benefit the respiratory system, sometime this spring. The spa also arranges a regular rotation of dynamic classes (the Warrior Goddess workshop, for example, is all about getting rid of self-judgment and negative energy). You can check the online schedule to see if the current options (classes change regularly) pique your interest. Luxury meets serenity at Spa de La Mer (28 W. 53rd St., 212.790.8910), an underground sanctuary located two floors beneath the Baccarat Hotel & Residences. The lavish setting features a black-and-white marble pool bordered by plush daybeds, and four treatment rooms with murals of kelp, the key ingredient used in luxury skin-care brand La Mer’s cult-followed products. This is the spot to indulge in hedonistic experiences. The Cashmere Quench Wrap involves painting melted shea butter on the body, while the La Mer Baccarat Facial features a diamond-powder exfoliation and massage with Baccarat crystals. Don’t leave without trying the Miracle Broth: The highly concentrated blend of nutrient-rich sea ingredients is supposed to work magic on your skin and is only available at this spa. Got a stiff neck, tight shoulders or a sore back? You need a rubdown from the massage therapists at The Marmara Park Avenue (114 E. 32nd St., 212.603.9000). By focusing on straightforward body treatments, like deep-tissue massage and Swedish massage, the spa expertly provides genuine relief. Top off your experience with a plunge in the subterranean pool, or try a Turkish hammam (bath).

About Buses There are approximately 5,900 air-conditioned buses on over 300 routes. Buses stop at street corners about every three blocks. Look for signposts marked with a bus emblem and route number. Most buses operate btw 5 am and 2 am, while certain buses run 24 hours a day. Select Bus Service on First and Second aves. (btw South Ferry & E. 126th St.), as well as 34th St. (from the FDR Dr. to the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center), requires riders to pay their fares prior to boarding and to enter through any of three doors. Schedules and maps are posted at stops.
About Subways There are 24 subway lines designated by either a route number or letter, serving 469 stations. Round-the-clock, air-conditioned service is provided seven days a week. Subways run every 2-5 mins. during rush hours, 10-15 mins. during the day and about every 20 mins. btw midnight and 5 am. Stops are clearly posted and subway maps are on view at stations and in every car.
Cost of Ride The base fare is $2.75 per ride, payable by MetroCard or exact change for buses (no bills or pennies); subways accept only the MetroCard. There are two kinds of MetroCards: 1) Unlimited Ride—$31/seven consecutive days and $116.50/30 consecutive days; 2) Pay-Per-Ride—Purchase a multiple-ride MetroCard and receive an 11 percent bonus, as well as free transfers from subway to bus, bus to subway or bus to bus within a two-hour period. Buy MetroCards at subway station booths and vending machines, train terminals and select stores throughout NYC. Pay for Select Bus Service with a MetroCard or coins (exact change only) at fare collection machines at designated bus stops. For assistance in English and Spanish: 718.330.1234.
Getting Around The maps indicate MTA bus and subway routes. Each line is in a different color.
