Five things to do today
Fri May 6 2011
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart
Music
The Pains of Being Pure at Heart + Twin Shadow + Big Troubles
Few acts polish an old sound with the aplomb of locals the Pains of Being Pure at Heart, taking over Webster Hall tonight.
Film
Scene: Brooklyn
Kings County filmmakers are given the spotlight during this weeklong affair.
Comedy
The Improvised Shakespeare Company
The actors speak in faux-British accents and employ Elizabethan-era speech, yet this hugely popular show at Theatre 80 is anything but gimmicky.
Museums
"Moveable Feast: Fresh Produce and the NYC Green Cart Program"
Photographs of NYC's Green Cart Program, designed to expand access to fresh fruit and vegetables, are on display at the Museum of the City of New York.
Nightlife
Pacha: Calvin Harris
The brash Scotsman hits the decks tonight for a set of anthemic electro and big-room house.
