the Q at Parkside: Bard in the Park Thru Sunday

The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

Bard in the Park Thru Sunday

You, lucky near-the-second-greatest-park-in-the-world sort, YOU can zip up on the B41 to Grand Army Plaza, or walk across the luscious center of our Park, to see the New York Classical Theatre's wild and outdoor production of As You Like It, a pastoral comedy from some earring wearing hipster from England. You get to follow the action as it moves through the park, and no tickets or reservations are needed. Are you seriously NOT considering going? Really? Just read the synopsis and then chortle at the appropriate times, and your date will think you really know your Bard, and then you can smooch in the Nethermead on your moonlit walk back to Lefferts. Just be wary of mistaken identities!!
