Babel's latest is the world-premiere production of Norman Lasca's play A Great Place to be From. The Midwest is struck by a monstrous heat wave - the kind that makes cows keel over and chickens explode - and four people tell the stories of how their lives change forever in ways so absurd, tragic and transporting that they only make sense through a haze of scorching sun bouncing off the asphalt.
You're intrigued, right? And, just think - you can scratch that itch for only $18!
Here are the performance details:
September 4th - 27th
Wednesday - Saturday @ 7:30 PM
and Monday, September 8th @ 7 PM
The Kraine Theatre
85 E. 4th Street (Bowery and 2nd)

But wait - there's more! Babel has picked up stakes and moved downtown to the East Village, which means good restaurants are plentiful, so you can truly make a night of it. Here's where I'd recommend stopping either before or after a performance - not that Norman's play isn't an evening in and of itself!
- Kasadela (Japanese - 11th between B & C)
- Five Points (American - Great Jones between Bowery and Lafayette)
- The Holy Basil (Thai - 2nd Ave. between 9th and 10th
- Momofuku Ssam Bar (Korean-Southern Fusion - 2nd Ave. between 12th and 13th)
- Death & Company (Cocktails - 6th Street between 1st and A)
Right?
