What: SLEEP NO MORE
Where: The McKittrick Hotel, on West 27th Street.
When: various times from 7:00 – 8:pm starting time to 10:00 pm during the week.
Why: Because it’s a Punchdrunk show and is so inventive and clever you might want to see it twice. Because they have taken a derelict warehouse and turned it into a 1930s swank hotel in which “The Scottish Play” is played out. You can explore the rooms; eat the candy; and follow the characters (yes it’s a bit like Tamara, but different). And it’s fun and spooky theatre.
