For two decades now the Drilling Company theater group has been putting on one of NYC's great summer traditions, the brilliantly conceived Shakespeare In the Parking Lot. Staged in a fully functioning municipal lot on the Lower East Side (yes, cars come and go during the show, though fewer than you might think), these performances not only offer Shakespeare lovers a novel and welcome counterpoint to the celebrity-studded, "uptown fancy" Central Park shows, but they are usually pretty terrific in and of themselves.

It’s that time of year again! Are you looking to get in the holiday spirit? Need a fun idea for a date? Want something cheap and tiring to do with your kids during the upcoming Thanksgiving break?

In addition to the ice skating rink, there are excellent snack options to choose from and the surrounding Holiday Shops offer quite a few unique gift-buying options too.
