Things to do for March 21, 2013

The Weekender

Nude Opera, Close Shaves and Ping-Pong

We just called... to say... the weekend.

Thursday
The Nakedest Opera in Town
NIGHT AT THE OPERA

The Nakedest Opera in Town

Take a 17th-century banned Venetian opera, turn it into a glam-rock event, toss in some less-than-fully-clothed burlesque dancers and put it all on at the Box. No, wait, you don’t have to do that. Someone else took care of it. You just have to show up.

Mar 21, 23, 26 and 29, 8pm, $50-$175, The Box, 189 Chrystie St (between Rivington and Stanton), 212-982-9301

IN THE CUT

A Third-Gen Barber at Chelsea Market

It’s both a blessing and a curse. Your hair just keeps growing. It won’t stop. Eventually, you’ll be a caveman. Unless you get yourself to this new shave-and-cut spot from a Freemans vet and third-generation barber. Walk in. Request a straight shave. Hear that “shing shing” sound. Easy.

You’ve been thinking you need a new rug lately. Then you thought, “Damn, I just thought about needing a rug. What’s happening to me?” Don’t worry. Just come to Steven Alan’s new home shop for some Hamptons-house-worthy gear, and maybe a spectacular Clare Vivier duffel. Well, as spectacular as duffels get.

A Holy Union of Tacos and Ping-Pong
PONG WAY

A Holy Union of Tacos and Ping-Pong

If you’re seeking an NBA championship or Olympic gold medal, try Wheaties. For doubles ping-pong legendry, try... tacos al pastor. Case in point: this new Monday tradition, where you’ll work on your backspin over tacos and tequila cocktails. You’ve been needing a new Monday tradition.
