C.C. came across this poster this morning in Clinton Hill, Brooklyn, just of Myrtle Avenue (aka, Murder Avenue). It’s an advertisement for The Met’s upcoming staging of Philip Glass’s opera “Satyagraha,” based on the early life of Gandhi (opens April 11).
This kind of confirms our theory that Peter Gelb has a large part of his [...]

TONIGHT AT 8PM
BAR OPENS AT 7:30PM [...]
