Here’s your chance to see this Tony Award-winner for Best Play close up and intimate! In this savagely caustic comedy, a playground altercation between boys brings together two sets of Brooklyn parents for a meeting to resolve the matter. At first, diplomatic niceties are observed, but as the evening progresses and the rum flows, it quickly deteriorates into a finger-pointing, fur-flying hilarious brawl, leaving the couples with more than just their liberal principles in tatters. Low-Price Previews Jan 24-26 Dinner Package: Dinner for 2 at L'Opera or The Sky Room & tix to the show for $139!

Murder Mystery Dinner Show and Cruise
The Dinner Detective Murder Mystery Dinner Show, the largest Murder Mystery Dinner Show in the United States, was voted 2010 "Best Dinner Show." The Dinner Detective was founded on three simple ideas: NO hokey costumes, NO lame scenarios and NO campy dialogue. Therefore, by having the setting be present day and by hiding our actors among the customers, we leave everyone to suspect who is part of the show and who is not. Each ticket includes a four course meal, show, prize, a 2 hour harbor cruise on board an authentic paddle wheel boat and so much more.
