Bedford-Stuyvesant Historic District
Considered Brooklyn's largest African-American community, this historic area features twelve blocks of bay-fronted townhouses that look the same as they did in the late 19th century.
2
Peddlers and Parchment Escape
We are part of the global escape room phenomenon. But that's not nearly enough! We are a grassroots immersive museum of the amazing places where a family tree can lead! We bring to life the true story of Dr. Jeffrey Paull who discovered that some of the greatest sages such as the Shpoler Zaide (18th century), Rashi (11th century) and ultimately King David (9th century BCE) are all his ancestors! Our room packs a lot: cutting edge technology from international designers, genealogy, history, kindness and self-sacrifice.

Drunk Shakespeare
"To beer...or not to beer?" You are cordially invited to a meeting of The Drunk Shakespeare Society. The stage is set in a hidden library speakeasy near Times Square. Five professional actors meet as members of The Drunk Shakespeare Society. One of them has 5 shots of whiskey and then attempts to perform a major role in a Shakespearean tragedy. Hilarity and mayhem ensue while the four sober actors try and keep the script on track. Every show is different depending on who is drinking... and what they're drinking! Anything can happen! Drunk Shakespeare is a New York Times Critics Pick and “the best thing to ever happen to the theater” according to Slate Magazine. Craft cocktails are available for purchase throughout the show at our full-service bar and delivered right to your seat.
