"At a recent lunch, the tomahawk arriving at our table stole the show with its charred exterior, bright red slices of tender beef, and a dramatic bone falling off the plate." - Eater Staff
"New York’s world-famous theater district, long known as the Great White Way for the brilliant lights that illuminate it at night, encompasses 40 different theater venues, which are scattered along the midtown stretch of Broadway and its intersecting side streets between 41st and 53rd streets. The theater world’s most celebrated musicals, dramas and comedies are performed here daily, often with celebrity headliners. Secure matinee tickets online in advance to see what the fuss is about."
"On March 12, 2020, all 41 theaters in New York City's Broadway district went dark due to the pandemic. This closure affected not just the actors but also orchestra musicians, ensemble dancers, stagehands, wig designers, costumers, and lighting crews. Many have been out of work since then, with some leaving the industry or New York entirely. The reopening date for Broadway has not been set yet, although there are expectations for shows to resume in some form by the fall."
"Broadway has gone dark and closed its curtains for now, but the show goes on (even if that means digitally). With a membership or a seven-day free trial, you can stream musicals like Kinky Boots, Cats, and Miss Saigon on Broadway HD. After the week is up, the service continues for $9 a month. Note that you can also stream Cabaret, Once Upon A Mattress, and Anything Goes for free on Youtube. Or, catch cast members from shows like Dear Evan Hansen, Jagged Little Pill, and Mean Girls belting out tunes at home in a series of online Living Room Concerts."
"Poke bar serving unique dishes like 'poke toast' and 'poke tacos'." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
