Pencil This In
THEATER: 2 Husbands is a multimedia work in progress, but don’t let that scare you. It’s the budding creation of Brian Rogers and Ken Urban, whose innovative play I ♥ Kant made a big splash last month. His new collaboration is being developed at Long Island City’s Chocolate Factory and five bucks gets you a ticket and one complimentary drink. (We recommend the Bacardi and Ovaltine.) The production explores themes arising from the recent Terry Schiavo controversy and a true event from the mid-20th century in which a deceased black woman's cells were seized for scientific research without her family's knowledge. - John Del Signore
8pm // 5-49 49th Avenue Long Island City // Call (718) 482-7069 for tickets
MUSIC: Jenny Lewis and the Watson Twins croon for you at Town Hall tonight. A great place to hear the relaxed music stylings of Ms. Lewis. We definitely agree with Gothamist contributer Karen Cinecultist that the Watson Twins look a bit like the ghost girls from The Shining.
8pm // Town Hall [123 West 43rd St] // $25
EVENT: No Sleep Til Brooklyn: A powerHouse Hip Hop Retrospective is inaugural show in their new address. Doubling as the opening event for VH1’s Hip Hop Honors Week, of course.
