Twelfth Night
Men playing women playing men.
Stephen Fry playing Malvolio. Done with strict attention paid to authenticity, the costumes were glorious, stiff collars and boned waists, lace and linens. Hilarious live theater.

sleep no more
Adult haunted house as a teaser for a fabulous restaurant.
Sleep No More is an interactive play going on in NYC. They've converted a few warehouses into a giant 6 story set with a flapper era/speakeasy theme, two bars and a restaurant. The set decoration and costumes are fabulous, the music is disturbing and haunting, and it is loosely based on Macbeth.
I was caught up in exploring the sets. I should have followed the actors for I missed the ending of the show. The sets were amazingly well-appointed and each room was creepier than the next. There was a "safe" room, the Speakeasy itself, where one could sit and listen to a fantastic band and singer while drinking cocktails and taking off the mask they made you wear in the stage area.
After the play, the hostess managed to squeeze me into a table at the restaurant. The food is amazing and worth it. I suggest reservations be made as they are packed when the play ends.
