| The new year may have just begun, but we're already feeling excited about the possibilities 2021 holds and thankful for all the amazing shows and fun things to do that artists have been bringing into our homes, from special stripped-down concerts by Broadway stars to creative new ways to take virtual vacations from home.
So move over, whiskers on kittens & here are a few of our favorite things. | | Go behind the curtain with a Broadway star | Seth Rudetsky's popular online series is one of our favorite ways to get an insider's peek at some of the biggest stars on Broadway. This week, Tony winner Kelli O'Hara takes the hot seat, sharing songs and stories from The King and I, Kiss Me Kate and beyond. | Learn More | | | Spend a mind-bending night in | Any bit of reality altering is welcome these days, and mentalist Nicolai Friedrich is a master at getting inside your head and seemingly turning your entire world upside-down with his Jedi mind tricks and through-your-laptop illusions. | Learn More | | | Slamdance like nobody's watching | All hail the power of the mighty power chord! Filmed during their 2005 American Idiot tour, Green Day's Bullet in a Bible documents the pop-punk trio's biggest show ever — and they look like they're having the time of their lives. | Learn More | | | Screen a cult classic with a Hollywood star | Before Sam Raimi gave us the original Spider-Man trilogy, he had the spider-sense to write and direct one of the most beloved supernatural horror flicks of all time, The Evil Dead. This special screening will feature live commentary and trivia from the star of the cult fave himself, Bruce Campbell. | Learn More | | | Take a no-passport, no-jet-lag virtual vacation | Sometimes it's nice to remind ourselves that there's a great big world out there, and this virtual tour of the Hermitage in St. Petersburg gets you inside one of the most famous museums in the world, home to Rembrandts, Da Vincis and the crown jewels of Catherine the Great. | Learn More | | | Celebrate Deaf artists with a Broadway salute | Streamed live from The Triad Theatre in New York City, Broadway SIGNs! promises to be an uplifting night of theater, dance and storytelling featuring actors from the Tony-nominated Spring Awakening revival plus talented performers from New York Deaf Theatre. | Learn More | | | Discover a world of cinema from your living room | For movie lovers who think they've streamed it all, Film Movement Plus offers over 300 indie features and dozens of short films from China, France, Cuba, Jordan and beyond. The movie list is expansive enough that you can always find something new, but manageable enough that it's always easy to answer that age-old question: "So, what should we watch tonight?" | Learn More | | | Watch & support live theater in one *fab* swoop | Live theater may be on pause, but not this streaming production of Menopause, which stars Laverne & Shirley's Cindy Williams. This long-running, feel-good musical comedy set to songs from the '60s, '70s and '80s is silly, empowering and sure to put a smile on your face. | Learn More | | | | |
