THEATER: Biographical plays about artists can be boring, but this one has the word 'seduction' in the title, so fingers crossed! The Seduction of Edgar Degas tells the story of the famous Impressionist and his fascination with the ballet dancer who inspired some of his most famous work. "After seeing Eugenie Fiocre, considered to be the most beautiful woman in Paris, in the revolutionary ballet La Source, Degas desired nothing more than to paint her. Le Wilhelm, playwright of Maiden's Progeny and The Hanging of Razor Brown, brings the unknown story of this seduction—the artist coming into his own and the dancer who showed him his life's work." – John Del Signore

8:30 p.m. // 59E59 Theaters [59 East 59th Street] // $20
