I have to admit I was unsure of watching Off Off Broadway shows because many times they are less exciting than Broadways shows and have difficult topics. But, Man.Gov has changed my mind completely. I have fallen in love with Off Off Broadway shows! I did not expect much when I went to see Man.Gov but I was blown away by how fantastic it was. The acting, lighting, and set came together so well that I was totally absorbed in the story for all 90 minutes of the play.

Are you interested in seeing your imagination come alive? Well, there is no better place to go to see this happen than Lunt-Fontanne Theater located on West 46th Street in New York. In this theater, you can take a peek of what happens in a marine kingdom ruled by mystical creatures known as mermaids. Our imaginations diminish and our cynicism grows as we get older and learn of the existence of a fine line between reality and dreams, but “The Little Mermaid: the Musical” successfully reignites those imaginations back to life into fires filled with dreams and fairy tales.

Before I read the New York Times article on the “Second Lives: Remixing the Ordinary” exhibition at the Museum of Arts and Design, I felt pretty much the same like the rest of the general population. Considering that I have never been to this particular museum before and that it is free admission with the cultural passport, I decided to visit it to see the special exhibition. What I saw astounded me; even “garbage” can be reformed to create extraordinary pieces of art that inspire such piquant pleasure to the human sight. [Read more →]

You would never expect a tiny place to contain such a large variety of things.  The abundance of artwork at the “Cooper-Hewitt National Museum of Design” provides a large enough collection to appeal to any type of audience.   Each exhibition has different inspirations⎯from watercolors to wallpaper⎯that help to diversify the museum.  Design and functionality are common themes rooted within the walls of #2 East 91st street.  Each exhibition had its own individual pros and cons, but by putting them altogether under one roof, Cooper-Hewitt has separated itself from any other museum in Manhattan.
