1. See A Midsummer Night's Dream in Gowanus
Head to Redwood Studios to catch a special performance of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream against the Gowanus Canal. If the performance isn't enough of a draw maybe live music and an open bar after-party will. (Through June 21. 55 9th St, Brooklyn. 7pm; $30.)

2. Dance it out with Shamir at Music Hall of Williamsburg
Buzzy young singer Shamir Bailey raps and croons on top of disco- and house-inspired hip-hop beats on his new debut record, "Ratchet." Let his androgynous voice and synth soul put you in a dancing frenzy—before he blows up and starts selling out MSG. (66 N 6th St, Brooklyn. 9pm; from $49 on StubHub)

3. Laugh with/at Judah Friedlander at Caroline's on Broadway
F
riedlander desrcibes himself as "the best athlete in the world, greatest martial artist, the sexual desire of every woman, and a role model to children. Let’s face it, Judah is the greatest comedian in the world… And the most humble." Catch his hilarious residency starting tonight. (Through June 20. 1626 Broadway. 7:30pm; from $32.75)
