THEATER NEWS by Francis Lewis
Magic Feet
Last December, “The Band’s Visit” a world-premiere musical, opened Off-Broadway. The monthlong limited engagement received unlimited rave reviews. So, while theater pundits were debating the chances of “Dear Evan Hansen” taking home the 2017 Tony Award for Broadway’s Best Musical (which it did in June), “The Band’s Visit” scooped up most of the other gongs, including the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Musical. Since Broadway likes nothing better than a proven winner, “The Band’s Visit” has now made the journey to the Great White Way, with many actors from its original cast in tow, including Tony Shalhoub (above, left). Suffice it to say, the show is already the frontrunner for the 2018 Best Musical Tony. | “The Band’s Visit,” Ethel Barrymore Theatre, 243 W. 47th St., 212.362.6000

Weighty Matters
”Who’s happy with themselves?” asks stand-up comedian Lisa Lampanelli (left) apropos “Stuffed,” the Off-Broadway comedy she wrote and stars in. The question is rhetorical because “everyone has issues,” including Lampanelli whose weight has often been the source of her raunchiest fat jokes. “Stuffed” is the story of four women and their body images. Serious stuff for comedy perhaps, but after losing and keeping off 100 pounds, the now-svelte Lampanelli says humor best handles sensitive issues: “With humor, you educate people and make them feel better about themselves.” | “Stuffed,” Westside Theatre Downstairs, 407 W. 43rd St., 212.239.6200

Strike Up the Band
Midway through the first act of “Prince of Broadway,” an anthology of greatest hits from Broadway musicals either directed and/or produced by Harold Prince (think: “West Side Story,” “Cabaret” and “The Phantom of the Opera,” just for starters), Tony Yazbeck (below) stops the show. In a dazzling display of tap dancing, choreographed by Susan Stroman, Yazbeck, as Buddy, the philandering husband in Stephen Sondheim’s “Follies,” has a nervous breakdown. Self-loathing and anger are there in Sondheim’s lyrics for the song, “The Right Girl,” which Yazbeck sings admirably. But watch how his fleet feet drive home the character’s frustration, guilt and regret, expanding emotion with every step. There is no finer dancer on Broadway at this time. | “Prince of Broadway,” Samuel J. Friedman Theatre, 261 W. 47th St., 212.239.6200

that caters to both lovers of classic Beijing cuisine (hand-pulled vegetable lo mein, spicy pepper mignon) and the diet-obsessed (tuna tartare, chicken and vegetable lettuce wraps). For those not in the least bit diet-obsessed, you owe it to yourself to check out Belly (219 Grand St., Williamsburg, Brooklyn, 888.777.0087). The brains behind this hip new Brooklyn eatery knew what they were doing opening a bacon-centric spot where pork-lover’s faves range from a bacon omakase dinner to à la carte choices such as bacon baps (rice/bacon dishes), bacon sushi, and bacon Reuben sandwiches, among others. And, lastly, If you knew how partial I am to all things pink, you would know why I love the new casual Italian eatery, The Sosta (186 Mott St., no phone), whose blush-colored interior warms my girlish heart, as does its focaccia sandwich with pancetta, onion jam and mozzarella; and the zucca vodka pasta, one of the best vodka sauces I have ever tasted.

BACK IN THE 1990S, I loved meeting friends after work at An American Place, owned by Larry Forgione, who was named America’s Best Chef by the James Beard Foundation in 1993. Now, years later, and in true classic-American-business-storylore, his son, Marc, has followed in his footsteps, opening American Cut in TriBeCa in 2013 and its Midtown outpost last year (109 E. 56th St., 212.388.5277). The restos are designed for the well-heeled crowd (the Midtown locale has plush, rustcolored chairs; gleaming, dark leather banquettes; and Art Deco chandeliers), as is the menu (a New York cut is $61, a tomahawk chop for two, $145). But when it comes to the impeccable steakhouse experience (including irresistible, herb-flecked warm bread to start), this is the place to go. On the subject of the upper crust, Philippe (33 E. 60th St., 212.644.8885) is as luxe as you can get when it comes to Chinese food in NYC, with a menu

Artists embracing the latest in technology is nothing new: Consider the portable paint tubes that allowed the Impressionists to paint haystacks and sunsets outdoors. Or the camera. Still, in recent years, the art/tech alliance has flourished like never before. Data, neon tubing and tissuethin LED screens merely hint at what tech-savvy artists are using to push their work in uncharted directions. (1) A stroll through “Infinite Blue” should dispel any doubts about tech’s impact on art. In this clever exploration of the color blue, a tech-infused work like “276 (On Color Blue)” (1993), Joseph Kosuth’s symphony of neon tubing and electrical wire, takes its rightful place beside other true-blue art through the ages.

THE AFTER-DARK SCENE by Daniel Fridman
Exotic Jolts of Java Whether you’re exhausted from exploring the depths of NYC, looking to extend your night until sunrise, or simply getting your day going with an extra kick, here are some tips on where to find caffeinated libations in the Big Apple.
Brooklyn Bowl
Deciding how to satisfy a big group for a night out in NYC can feel like trying to solve a Rubik’s Cube: Some want to eat, some want to play; others want to sing and dance, and many simply want what the barkeep has to offer. Since 2009, Brooklyn Bowl has delighted the interests and passions of New York City’s residents and visitors in its 2,000-plus-square-foot space, which features a 16-lane bowling alley with leather chesterfield sofas for resting bowlers at each lane. Dine-in food service can be ordered to the sofas, which also offer elevated views of the stage above the adjacent 600-capacity concert dance floor. Musicians and DJs perform for the venue’s concert crowd, but bowlers and bar patrons within the venue are welcome to watch and listen from afar. Brooklyn-made beers from breweries such as Kelso and Sixpoint are on tap, and a kitchen offering fried chicken from New York’s Blue Ribbon Fried Chicken is open late nightly. | 61 Wythe Ave., Greenpoint, Brooklyn, 718.963.3369

This bar has a secret identity. To find it, head to the Rialto Jean Project clothing store at 206 Front St. in Seaport District NYC—formerly known as South Street Seaport. Walk down the alley past the storefront and turn left to a black door with a snazzily dressed rat painted on its front. Ring the bell and be let into a bar, painted black, with the exception of one untouched exposed-brick wall. This hidden venue is also dressed with 17thcentury portraits and vintage mirrors. Small lamps provide the subterranean lounge its sole illumination so you can sink onto a suede couch with a Smoke cocktail (left) and let the unwinding begin. | 206 Front St., no phone

Elizabeth’s Time Elizabeth McGovern turns back the clock on Broadway.

ONE CANNOT bow over the phone, but that irrational impulse seizes you when Elizabeth McGovern comes on the line. The actress, 56, has just finished a long photo shoot for “Time and the Conways,” a Broadway revival at Roundabout Theatre Company. Something about that honeyed purr, that transatlantic accent and her demure yet self-possessed answers make you forget that McGovern only plays an aristocrat on TV. Over six “Downton Abbey” seasons, her beloved character, Cora Crawley, aka Lady Grantham, has endured a miscarriage, a grown daughter’s death, financial crisis and Lady Mary’s bedroom shenanigans. On the series finale, she told husband Robert, “I think the more adaptable we are, the more chance we have of getting through.” McGovern herself can relate to such a statement. A film career that seemed promising in the 1980s (“Ordinary People,” “Ragtime,” “Once Upon a Time in America”) sputtered. She was engaged to Sean Penn for a brief spell in her 20s, but that fell through. True love came with British film director and producer Simon Curtis, whom she married. She moved across the pond, from Los Angeles to Chiswick, West London, where she still lives. She spent the last 20-odd years raising daughters Grace and Matilda. In 2008, she formed, of all things, a folkrock band, Sadie and the Hotheads. In 2010, her fortunes took a dramatic turn when Julian Fellowes came calling with the “Downton” pilot script. Now, after an absence of 25 years, she’s back on Broadway. On the one hand, “Time and the Conways” will be catnip to “Downton” fans: a tragicomic family drama by J.B. Priestley set in 1919 and 1937, a period that overlaps with “Downton.” But the Conway clan is decidedly middle class, and the play a wistful meditation on change and fate. Its first and third acts are set in 1919, at a jolly family get-together. The middle act, however, shows the family fallen on hard times years later. Tenderly optimistic, but shadowed by melancholy, it’s perfect material for this remarkable star.

For once, I can legitimately give credit to an agent—just when we thought they were completely useless! Mark Subias, my agent at UTA [United Talent Agency] saw the show when it was done in 2014 at San Diego’s Old Globe Theatre, and he put me together with director Rebecca Taichman to reincarnate the project at the Roundabout. I had a relationship with Todd [Haimes, head of the Roundabout], so it seemed like a serendipitous thing. “Hamlet” was the last play that I ever did in New York, so it feels full circle to me.
about run?
How are you approaching the character of Mrs. Conway?
I’m interested to explore someone who is a really crap mother, as opposed to all the perfect mother roles that’ve been written over and over. I think she was probably not meant to be a mother. She’s unable to apply any emotional intelligence to raising her children, and yet she’s not a bad person; she’s filled with love for her children. I think she probably would’ve been a lot better off had she pursued a career as an actress. I’m interested by the kind of impact that mothering can have.
similar tensions?
Yes, of course. I freely admit it. I can understand only too well this mother’s need to be at the center of attention, and the way it affects her mothering skills. Her own sense of herself absorbs all the oxygen in the room. Are you having “Downton Abbey” déjà vu, considering the time period?
That happens when I crawl into the 1920s dress. Aside from that, there really aren’t too many parallels. With “Time and the Conways,” you could set it in a different era, and it would still play. It’s not so much about the particular mood of that period, more about family dynamics and the passage of time. My approach to it is less colored by the time when it’s set, than “Downton” possibly was. In the play, Priestley seems to say we can never predict the future, even if it’s fate.
This is very much my feeling about the play: It swings from dark to light, then back to light again, and it always does, even in life. It’s something to keep in mind when you’re feeling in despair. When you study history, the pendulum has swung back and forth always. I think about my daughters, who are now coming of age in a time of so much anxiety and insecurity; they look around and don’t see anybody in a position of leadership that they can respect. I feel it’s my job to be reassuring and constantly on guard, to keep hold of a feeling that we will swing back, we will bounce back, we will survive. There is light and dark to every life. It jumps backwards and forwards in time, and you see it. It feels like it’s never going to end, but time always proves, over and over, that it does. For the play, I hope that there will be a takeaway in some parts of the audience, that it’s not a play about the inevitability of doom.
Ooh, I don’t know. We’ll see. We’ve got another CD that has taken quite a long time to do, because of the fact that we all go off and do other jobs. We have to do it in fits and starts. The hope is that at some point next year, we’ll release it on the back of a tour, a UK tour or something that we can put together. You play guitar. Who are your personal guitar heroes?
I don’t really consider myself a guitar player. I write songs on the guitar and sort of strum along. My inspiration is the songwriters, you know, Joni Mitchell, or in today’s world, Lily Allen: idiosyncratic, lyric-based musicians. While here, what New York outings do you have planned?
We were at the Gotham Comedy Club the other night, watching Judd Apatow be absolutely hilarious. This is the first era of having kids who are more or less launched. I’ve got my husband with me: It’s funny for us because we’re free now, for the first time, in so many years. I think we’ll make the most of it. IN NEW YORK | OCTOBER 2017 | INNEWYORK.COM

FALL FOR
NEW YORK BY TRACY KALER
’Tis the season for the crunch of leaves under your feet. There’s something so inviting about the sights, smells and sounds of New York in the fall. Perhaps it’s the brisk mornings and fresh evenings mingled with the collage of vibrant hues gracing city parks. Food-loving New Yorkers might say it’s the hearty ingredients that suddenly pepper restaurant menus, or the bounty of local ciders that crops up in taverns around town. One thing’s for sure, fall in New York spawns a season of new and exciting things to see, do, shop and taste. IN NEW YORK | OCTOBER 2017 | INNEWYORK.COM

Fall for Foliage
Beginning in mid- to late-October, green spaces in the five boroughs provide a pageant of brilliant colors, ripe for viewing and photo ops. With a vivid yellow canopy of American elms, The Mall in Central Park (midpark, W. 66th St. to W. 72nd sts.) is an obvious spot for an afternoon outing. Stroll with friends or solo and collect your thoughts. The North Woods (midpark, at W. 102nd St.) will leave you feeling as if you’ve escaped to the country: Be on the lookout for black cherry, pin, red and scarlet oaks, and red maples, as these beauties shift to their intense autumn hues. The Medieval Period acts as inspiration for plantings at The Cloisters (99 Margaret Corbin Dr., 212.923.3700), where you’ll discover autumn joy sedums, asters and salvias blooming to their fullest in the Ornamental Garden. For foliage and a view, gaze across the Hudson River to the New Jersey Palisades— maple, sweet gum, poplar and birch trees promise a panorama of yellow, orange and red. Trade in the concrete of Manhattan for lush landscaping at Wave Hill (649 W. 249th St., Riverdale, 718.549.3200) in the Bronx. In the Flower Garden, see the ferny foliage of the cutleaf Japanese maple, which transforms to a brilliant shade of burnt orange. In the Glyndor Gallery, copper beech trees transition from a dark purple to a deep red, and bald cypress trees become a magnificent coppery bronze. In Queens, Forest Park (1 Forest Dr., Woodhaven, 718.235.0815) boasts the largest continuous oak forest in the borough. Ramble on the forest trail and take note of the grand oaks that are over 150 years old, as well as dogwood, sassafras and cork trees in shades of dark red to bold yellow. Other trees of note in Forest Park are the scarlet oak, shagbark hickory and wild black cherry. In Brooklyn’s Prospect Park (Parkside Ave. & Ocean Ave., Prospect Heights), an umbrella of majestic trees cap the grounds as they transform from lush green to bright shades of amber and gold. Commemorate the park’s 150th anniversary with a fall foliage walk starting at Grand Army Plaza near Prospect Park West. Stroll toward the Meadowport Arch and notice a gingko, nyssa and Japanese maple. If timed right, you’ll see stunning fall colors tumble from the top down. From the Whitehall Terminal in Lower Manhattan, climb aboard the Staten Island Ferry and head to Snug Harbor Cultural Center & Botanical Garden (1000 Richmond Terr., Snug Harbor, 718.425.3504). Meander down Cottage Row, where autumn hues stand front and center at the Pond Garden, the Carl Grillo Glass House and the pleached allée (allée is French for avenue), an arch modeled after a European garden.
Above, a quilted cabbage pot from Love Adorned; a pergola at Wave Hil.l
Fall brings a bevy of opportunities for browsing and buying throughout the city’s diverse shops. At NoLIta’s Love Adorned (269 Elizabeth St., 212.431.5683), peruse a varied selection of jewelry and decorative items, such as embroidered vegetables by fine art sculptor Rachel Nettles.

Get spooked by the brass skull box, a decorative container made from solid polished brass on a blackened brass base with a hidden hinge that adds an edge to any table setting, just in time for Halloween. For the eco-conscious, browse unusual gifts, housewares and tchotchkes at Magpie (488 Amsterdam Ave., 212.579.3003). Handprinted yellow, green and orange gingko-leaf towels from Kei and Molly are a gentle reminder of fall’s colorful palette. The earth-friendly towels are sewn from flour-sack cotton and use nontoxic ink. In Hell’s Kitchen, dapper fellows can hunt for dandy-inspired bow ties, suspenders, caps and other garments and accessories at Fine & Dandy (445 W. 49th St., 212.247.4847), a treasure trove of fantastic finds. This season, adorable tweed teddy bears and soft flannel nightshirts imported from Ireland can warm you up on chilly October nights.
Fall for Beer and Eats
As Oktoberfest cools down, NYC’s craft beer scene heats up. At Arts & Crafts Beer Parlor (26 W. 8th St., 646.678.5263, and one other location), a tavern-meets-art-gallery, choose from 24
rotating beers on tap and a lineup of bottles. For fall, count on cold-weather brews, including Märzen lager, maple porter and pumpkin beer, as well as barrel-aged stouts. When hunger calls, opt for a Bavarian pretzel with a side of beer cheese, paired best with an IPA. Or head north to Flatiron’s Eataly (200 FifthAve., 212.229.2560), where restaurants serving seasonal roasts, vegetables, hearth-baked breads and craft beers await. In Brooklyn, Radegast Hall & Biergarten (113 N. 3rd St., Williamsburg, 718.963.3973) continues the momentum of Oktoberfest. Quaff Hofbräu Oktoberfest and Weihenstephaner Oktoberfest at the main bar and choose from nine other rotating beers in the back haus through mid-October. Food and beer are a winning combination, and that’s evident at Lower East Side Asian eatery Char Sue (119 Essex St., 646.484.9241). Perfect for fall, crispy Brussels sprouts are a menu favorite and the Asian-inspired preparation makes them irresistible. This salty, sweet and sour dish pairs wonderfully with an IPA or a Reissdorf Kölsch. Enjoyed by beer and wine lovers alike, hard cider takes the Big Apple by storm during Cider Week (various locations, cider weeknyc.com) Oct. 20-29. A tent at Union Square Greenmarket kicks off festivities, with makers offering samples and selling their ciders from New York City, Long Island, the Hudson Valley and the Finger Lakes. Cheers!

Maximize your game plan with these insider tips on New York City’s must-see matchups of the month. By Daniel Fridman BORN-AND-BRED NEW YORKERS allocate their sports devotions early, and they rarely budge once they’ve been elevated to Major Fan status. In New York, this is a special breed of sports fan, particularly because unlike most metropolitan areas in America, this city is represented by two clubs in every top-tier professional sport. Take baseball, for example. The Yankees exude a culture of winning. Their logo—arguably the most famous sports logo in the world—and their 27 World Series championships—the most of any club in professional North American sports history—help formulate an elite mentality passed down through this devoted community from generation to generation: New York breeds champions. Meanwhile, many working-class fans from Queens, Brooklyn and Long Island identify with New York’s other home baseball team, the Mets, who have triumphed in the World Series only twice (1969, 1986). The classically elegant persona of the Yankees versus the Mets’ personification of less-successful, but proudly gritty New Yorkers is only one example of NYC’s captivating sports landscape. So, while you’re in town, make like the loyal natives and check out a game. Whomever you choose as your home-team-for-the-day, we’ve got you covered with insider tips on the best pubs to grub before, during and after October’s biggest matches. (And, of course, feel free to visit a postgame bar beforehand, and vice versa).

About Buses THE GOOD: If you are looking to get a view of NYC street life and are not in a rush, buses are a great way to travel. THE BAD: Traffic is highly unpredictable, and a bus ride can wind up taking much longer than anticipated. THE FACTS: There are approximately 5,900 air-conditioned buses on over 300 routes. Look for signposts marked with a bus emblem and route number. Most buses operate btw 5 am and 2 am; some buses run 24 hours a day. For 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), pay your fares prior to boarding and enter through any of three doors.
About Subways THE GOOD: The fastest, cheapest and most reliable way around town. THE BAD: Subways can get packed, sardine-style, during rush hours, can be hot in the summer and might have a “colorful character� or two. THE FACTS: There are 24 subway lines designated by either a route number or letter, serving 469 stations. Round-theclock, 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 cost of a subway and bus trip can vary, from $3 for a single fare to $2.75 if you are buying more than one ride (in which case, various discounts are available). For buses (if you are not using a MetroCard), you need exact change (no bills or pennies). You can purchase MetroCards at subway station booths, 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, call 718.330.1234, or log onto web.mta.info.
Getting Around
The maps indicate MTA bus and subway routes. Each line is in a different color.
