How do I find a good movie, play, concert, jazz bar, poetry reading, art opening, or other event?
The New Yorker (weekly magazine) provides thoughtful reviews and a good brief selection of current events. Time Out New York (popular weekly magazine), “an obsessive guide to impulsive entertainment,” has more extensive listings, with evaluatory comments. Buy both at any newstand. Those selected lists, both short and long, provide a better basis for a quick choice than the haphazard coverage provided by newspaper reviews, e.g. The New York Times and The Village Voice. Finally, the New York Times & Fodor’s provide the New York City Travel Guide, an on-line tourist-oriented guide to visiting the city.
