Welcome

From the MAYOR OF NEW YORK

As Mayor of New York City, I am delighted to join New York City’s original City Guide in welcoming you to the greatest city in the world.

This year, more than 54 million visitors will come to New York City, and we want every one of you to have a unique and unforgettable experience.

From world-class restaurants to one-of-a-kind food trucks, from the theaters of Broadway to free summer concerts in our parks, from boutiques to vintage shops — ours is a city with something to offer everyone. And to make the most of your time here, experience this city the way New Yorkers do, by visiting neighborhoods in every borough.

Spend an afternoon exploring the incomparable Brooklyn Museum or New York Botanical Garden. Visit Chinatown in Flushing, Queens for incredible cuisine and culture. Ride the Staten Island Ferry—and then stay and have lunch at one of the best pizza restaurants in the city. Visit the Bronx Zoo and make this a trip the family will never forget.

Every borough and every neighborhood has something to offer. Take a walk off the beaten path and explore some of the hidden gems and local spots that make New York City the greatest place on earth.

Welcome!

Yours sincerely,

Bill de Blasio

Installation View: Visionaries: Creating a Modern Guggenheim David Heald © Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, 2017

ONGOING

VISIONARIES: CREATING A MODERN GUGGENHEIM at the SOLOMON R. GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM provides a rare chance to explore in-depth some of the key artists of this essential New York institution. Framed by the interests of six leading patrons, Visionaries brings together canvases from masters like Max Ernst, René Magritte, and Yves Tanguy, and sculptures by Joseph Cornell and Alberto Giacometti. In addition, Jackson Pollock’s Alchemy (1947) is being shown in the U.S. for the first time in nearly 50 years. More than a dozen works on paper by Picasso and Van Gogh, rarely on view to the public, can be seen in the Thannhauser Gallery, and paintings by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Paul Gauguin, and Édouard Manet are displayed on the museum’s legendary ramps. 1071 Fifth Ave. (89th St.), 212-423-3500, guggenheim.org

DRONES: IS THE SKY THE LIMIT? is the first major museum exhibition on pilotless aircraft to open in the U.S. The large-scale exhibition is installed in a huge, custom-designed pavilion on the legendary aircraft carrier now known as the INTREPID SEA, AIR & SPACE MUSEUM. The show reveals the history of drone technology, from its WWI origins to its current applications in solving complex humanitarian challenges.

A mix of small and large-scale drones are included, including Volantis, the world’s first flying dress, designed and worn by Lady Gaga. Pier 86, W. 46th St. & 12th Ave., 212-245-0072, intrepidmuseum.org

One of the highlights of summer adventuring in NYC is a thrill ride on the city’s custom speedboats. THE BEAST flies along the Hudson River from midtown towards the Statue of Liberty at speeds approaching 45 mph, with lots of twists, turns, and splashy action along the way. To zoom around New York from downtown, THE SHARK is your ride. Breeze by the Statue of Liberty, stop for a photo op, and zip by again to catch once-in-alifetime views of landmarks like Battery Park, One World Trade Center, and Ellis Island.

ONGOING The photographs in the new exhibit AMERICAN VISIONARY: JOHN F. KENNEDY’S LIFE AND TIMES at the NEW-YORK HISTORICAL SOCIETY convey the sensation you’ve seen them before: JFK in the White House, his kids joyfully playing nearby; JFK with wife Jackie at an event, both of them elegant and assured (in truth, many images here have only rarely been shown). It’s part of the famous Kennedy allure, conveying a world that’s simultaneously approachable, glittering, and rarefied. This well-curated exhibition charts JFK’s trajectory as a politician, as well as the cultural and historical pulse of the times, when photojournalism was at an apex. It’s a wonderful opportunity to observe a world both familiar and lost, and to reflect on where the country was— and is. 170 Central Park W. (btw. 76th & 77th Sts.), 212-873-3400, nyhistory.org

Cover Story Cats: One for the “Memory” Book

BY MERYL PEARLSTEIN

The cast of Cats dazzles, now and forever.

All kinds of iconic Andrew Lloyd Webber mastery has once again pounced onto Broadway. This time it’s at the Neil Simon Theatre, where a vibrant revival has introduced a new generation (or two) to T.S. Eliot’s Old Possum’s Book of Practical Cats.

Since the hit musical Cats burst back onto the Great White Way last summer, it has welcomed countless fans—from veterans who became enamored by the feline characters two or three decades ago, to kids who arrive dressed in cat costumes—and all of whom get caught up in the music and movements that take off the moment the Jellicle Cats appear in their colorful costumes.

“Whether you’ve seen the show just once in the past or multiple times now, you’ll always come away with something different. It’s not exactly your mother’s Cats, but in a large way, it really is,” says Mamie Parris, who stepped into the showstopping role of Grizabella last October, just a few days after British pop singer Leona Lewis played her final performance.

Grizabella, who is described by the others as a torn and tattered shadow of her former self—“You’d really have thought she’d ought to be dead/And who’d have ever supposed that that/Was 32 www.cityguideny.com

Grizabella the Glamour Cat...”—is best known for the Act II ballad “Memory,” the show’s most famous song. Parris makes it her own in a version that is at once both fresh and soulful.

As for the show’s opening, it literally creeps up on you before taking off. Leaping across the stage in delicious feline frenzy, the Jellicles are the first to be physically introduced, but they are only part of a cat community that is assembling for this one night a year when the worthiest of them is selected to be reborn and ascend to the Heaviside layer.

Will it be the devilish Macavity?

(Probably not: Macavity’s not there...!) Possibly the engagingly magical Mister Mistoffelees will take the honors...or perhaps the curious and sparkling Rum Tum Tugger? The honor (minor spoiler alert) is up for grabs until the end.

As the show unfolds, you can feel the excitement throughout the audience as the kitty cast slithers through the aisles,

“You can feel the excitement throughout the audience...”

catching the eyes of one entranced child after another—or a captivated parent, for that matter.

“This is a show that brings joy and delight every night,” notes Parris. “Everyone shares the energy of the ensemble of exceptionally talented dancers, actors, and singers who move in unity towards that final moment.”

(For the record, Parris’s Broadway credits include On the Twentieth Century, Ragtime, 110 in the Shade, and The Drowsy Chaperone; prior to joining Cats, she originated the role of Patty in another Lloyd Webber musical, School of Rock.)

If you saw the original production of Cats, you’re no stranger to its brilliant score and audacious characters. The current version—also directed by Trevor Nunn and transplanted yet again from London’s West End—has been updated

just enough to place it in the present, with some orchestration improvements and tweaks to Gillian Lynne’s original choreography by Hamilton alum Andy Blankenbuehler.

But if this is your first time seeing Cats you’ll not only be entertained, you’ll also learn a thing or two about felines—like how to address them (hint: it involves treats), and that they have three different names.

Finally, the set is still the visually striking junkyard, only in this go-round, theatregoers are invited onstage during intermission to explore the landscape from a cat’s eye view: oversized shoes, hats, toothbrushes, and other paraphernalia decorate every beloved inch.

Cats’ Broadway revival is more than a show, it’s an event. Now and forever indeed!

Cats is playing at the Neil Simon Theater, 250 W. 52nd St. For tickets call 877-250-2929 or visit catsthemusical.com.

GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM

Be entranced by the architecture of one of the world’s great buildings: The Guggenheim Museum.

Housed in an iconic Frank Lloyd Wright spiraling building, The Guggenheim Museum contains one of the world’s finest collections of modern and contemporary art, including works by Picasso, Matisse, and Modigliani. The newest exhibition here is Mystical Symbolism: The Salon de la Rose+Croix in Paris, 1892–1897, a rare look at an annual exhibition established by the eccentric French author and critic Joséphin Péladan (1858–1918) to represent the doctrines of his Rosicrucian order— a fraternal, esoteric religious sect. For more on the exhibition Visionaries: Creating a Modern Guggenheim, see p. 28.

ONE WORLD OBSERVATORY

See for miles and miles from the incomparable heights of One World Observatory.

There’s only one tallest. Only one strongest. And only one destination selected as the Best New Attraction in the World. These superlatives belong to One World Trade Center, and its pinnacle, the One World Observatory, rising over 100 stories in the sky.

With an attraction this popular, OWO’s alltimed-entry system is a major advantage. Computerized ticketing ensures wait times are always kept manageable. You can buy your ticket on the spot, or in advance online.

You’ll see some fast facts as you make your way to the elevators, confirming the superlatives: at 1,776 feet, One World Trade is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere; with over 45 tons of steel and a unique concrete core, it’s the strongest building in the world.

After a minute’s ride and a short video, you’ll hit the Discovery Level (the main observatory), with 360° sights of the city and beyond. It’s all here, from the rivers to the harbor, from the Statue of Liberty to the Empire State Building.

Jersey and Queens recede in distant horizons.

Helicopters zip by like hummingbirds, well below the floor-to-ceiling windows. The skyscrapers of Lower Manhattan—some of which once claimed title to the tallest building in the world—cluster below your feet like toys.

Observatory hours daily are 9am-10pm, with the last ticket sale at 9:15pm. Admission is $34 for adults, $32 for seniors above age 65, and $28 for children between ages 6 and 12. Kids 5 and under get in free. Admission for 9/11 family members, rescue, and recovery workers is free, and active and retired members of the US military get special discounts.

Moving Along: A New Season Takes Shape

Carol Rosegg

BY GRIFFIN MILLER

Lift a glass to the devil-may-care cast of The Government Inspector.

Once you’ve seen Bette Midler and Ben Platt in their 2017 Tony-winning roles— Hello, Dolly and Dear Evan Hansen, respectively—and sought out any of Broadway’s heavyweight hitters that picked up their Tony trophies in seasons past, say The Book of Mormon, 2011; Chicago, 1997; Kinky Boots, 2013; The Lion King, 1998; or Hamilton, 2016, it’s time to turn your attention to the new season, already in progress.

With an opening date back on June 30th, Scott McPherson’s Marvin’s Room officially launched the 2017-2018 season.

Infusing a life-death-estrangement family dynamic with humor—sometimes broad, sometimes delicate—McPherson’s 1990 play delves into the heart of anyone who has cared for or lost someone dear.

Bringing the current production to life in its first Broadway run are Lili Taylor (Aunt Dan and Lemon; Six Feet Under), Janeane Garofolo (Inside Amy Schumer; 24) and Celia Weston (True West; Modern Family).

These three actresses, embodying incredibly disparate roles, are compelling to watch. Taylor projects a gentle fearlessness; Garofolo, in her Broadway debut, meets the difficult task of evolving 60 www.cityguideny.com

from prickly to compassionate; while Weston, as a ditzy senior, is a joy to watch as she approaches her own physical ailments with arched eyebrows and the occasional deadpan one-liner.

Overall, Marvin’s Room is a haunting piece of theatre whose patina should come through even brighter by the end of its limited run (August 27th).

The other new show that made an early summer debut is Robert Icke and Duncan MacMillan’s fascinating adaptation of George Orwell’s 1984, a dystopian drama that taps into our underlying fears and/or overriding realities. It doesn’t help that the cast— especially leading actors Tom Sturridge, Olivia Wilde and Reed Birney—serve up harrowingly realistic performances.

As for the buzz about audience members fainting, hurling and whatnot, you can write it off as rumors gone wild. Still, if fake stage gore and Fear Factor concepts are personally problematic, you might want to skip rows A to G. BRAVE NEW WORLD New World Stages, a sprawling OffBroadway venue capable of housing

@ cityguidenyc

several shows simultaneously, had a noteworthy spike this summer when it imported two already popular OffBroadway comedies.

The first to check in—on July 5th— was The Government Inspector, a zany Gogolian farce of exquisite proportions thanks to a company of divinely matched comic actors headed by Michael Urie and featuring Tony winner Michael McGrath as a provincial mayor with his hand glued to the panic button and Obie winner Mary Testa as his vanity-case Mrs. (through August 5th only, since Urie has to get ready for his next gig alongside Mercedes Ruehl: Second Stage’s OffBroadway revival of Harvey Fierstein’s groundbreaking Torch Song Trilogy slated for September.)

On July 8th, Puffs, or: Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic arrived. This scrappy and relentlessly skewed show offers

audiences a parallel Hufflepuff (aka low house on the Hogwarts totem pole) spin on the blockbuster wizarding kit and caboodle that turned author J.K. Rowling into a billionaire. Inside jokes and a spunky young cast (mostly muggle-born) make this a must for groupies, addicts, the curious (in every sense of the word), and, of course, you know who.

I should also point out that the 2004 Tony-winning musical Avenue Q is a long-time New World resident, having relocated its puppets and people to its current home in 2009. And while the presence of puppets would tend to imply “bring the kids,” Avenue Q is a feast of adult themes and dilemmas, making it inappropriate for tiny tots with their eyes (and ears) all aglow. It is, however, one of the most savvy, funny and politically on-trend adult musicals to be found on or Off Broadway—and worth a second or third visit if it’s been a while.

The scrappy cast of Puffs, or: Seven Increasingly Eventful Years at a Certain School of Magic and Magic.

DID YOU KNOW...

War Paint’s leading ladies—Broadway superstars Patti LuPone and Christine Ebersole—are both two-time Tony winners: LuPone for Evita and Gypsy and Ebersole for 42nd Street and Grey Gardens.

Brendon Urie, singer/songwriter/musician/instrumentalist and Panic! At the Disco’s frontman, is currently playing Charlie Price (the guy who saves his family’s shoe factory by replacing sturdy Oxfords with sturdy stilettos for men) in Kinky Boots. But if you want to catch him strutting the Al Hirschfeld’s stage in boxers and shiny red thighhighs, you’d better act fast. His limited run ends on August 6th.

t

Okieriete ‘Oak’ Onaodowan, the actor who originated the roles of Hercules Mulligan and James Madison in Hamilton, joined the cast of Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 on July 3rd, becoming Josh Groban’s summer successor in the role of Pierre.

Hot Pots, BBQ, and Authentic Szechuan in Times Square

BY ETHAN WOLFF

In New York City you can find an authentic experience anywhere—even in Times Square. Ding Chinese Restaurant brings Szechuan cuisine, one of the city’s obesessions, along with hot pots and table barbecue to the heart of midtown.

Give a look or a listen to the clientele at midday and you’ll know you’ve found the real deal, with tables full of Chinese guests, interspersed with Western coworkers looking to try something new. A long list of lunch specials, including several combo deals, makes Ding a rare bargain in the neighborhood.

Affordability, however, does not mean the sacrifice of style. Wooden tables, with several roomy booths, make for a comfortable scene. Attention to detail is evident in the broad ceiling beams and the way an aquarium, busy with fish, is integrated into a side wall.

You can definitely go on a foodie adventure here (ox tongue and tripe anyone?), or choose from American Chinese favorites (General Tso’s Chicken, braised whole fish). You can also split the difference—there are many original tastes here ready to become go-tos. Take the

shredded bean curd with minced scallion; although tofu skin may not be a hometown staple, its appealing firm texture synchs perfectly with a flavor-packed scallion and sesame pesto. Szechuan pork wontons are standouts, supple homemade wrappers and savory meat, topped with a sauce that’s like a sophisticated Chinese take on barbecue, topped in chili oil. (The chili is more about an infusion of flavor than burning you out with heat.) The classic Szechuan dish of sautéed string beans is another winner; blistered beans meet a minced pork with clean and bright flavors as ginger balances against garlic. Friendly and attentive service will help you navigate the menu.

For communal experience, there’s nothing like sharing in the making of a meal, and Ding provides two opportunities.

Hot pots let you mix and match from dozens of ingredients to make your perfect soup. There’s also a Korean-inspired table barbecue which uses an innovative smokeless technology. Short ribs, jumbo shrimp, rib eye, brisket, and Berkshire pork belly are just a few of the temptations ready for the grill.

Whether it’s pre-theater dining, a business lunch, or knocking back a few beers over the camaraderie of a shared hot pot or barbecue dinner, Ding provides an authentic Chinese adventure in Times Square.

There’s nothing like sharing in the making of a meal...
