November 9 at 7pm
CPR - Center for Performance Research · Williamsburg • $0-$25
Discover what your body can say without moving much at all. Yuki Kawahisa's participatory workshop blends Noh, Butoh, Tai Chi, and clowning to explore stillness as storytelling, and every body is invited.
February 3 at 7:30pm
National Sawdust · Williamsburg
Part opera, part song cycle, part séance: Emily Wells conjures a "mirror father" living the queer life he never dared, and the phantom daughter he dreams of. Catch this work-in-progress up close, directed by Raja Feather Kelly.
Free Mind, The Studio · Bushwick
Learn the viral 'Gnarly' choreography from a drag performer who brings chaotic energy and storytelling to every move. Expect cardio, community vibes, and a warm-up circle that actually makes you feel connected.
Brooklyn Heights • $40
A theatrical playground where little imaginations run wild. Teaching artists guide kids through drama, music, and movement using a magical trunk of props, whether they're belting out show tunes at camp or becoming pirates at a birthday party.
Williamsburg • $70
Catch tomorrow's Broadway hits while they're still being born. This annual series offers a rare first listen to new musicals as composers and writers refine their shows in workshop readings.
Carroll Gardens
A tiny magic shop with a 20-seat theater where the tricks happen close enough to touch. Magician Daniel Morales hosts kid-friendly shows, adults-only mentalist nights, and hands-on lessons.
Browse Brooklyn neighborhood by neighborhood, get ideas just for you, or ask me anything.

I go through what's actually on nearby and keep only the ones worth the trip. Nobody pays to be on this list.
Finished events drop off the list. Check the listing for times and booking details before heading out.
Tell me when you’re free, where you’ll be, and what sounds appealing. “Live music near me, somewhere I can sit, under $30” gives me more to work with than “something fun.” You can keep narrowing it down with me.
You can browse these pages without an account. Sign in to save activities and help me learn your taste, so future suggestions have a better starting point.
Outgoing is free to use. Events have their own admission prices, including some that are free. Check the listing for prices and booking details before making plans.
