Thanks for being a member of City Paper! It’s Pride Month and the queer and trans communities are not OK. We’re scared. We’re tired. We’re hoarding prescriptions and contemplating if we can leave the country. We’re packing go bags. We’re working long hours, and we’re losing our jobs. But we also keep going. We’re hosting fundraisers, creating art, protesting, and putting on Pride celebrations—not just in D.C. and other big cities, but in small towns across the country.

Ants can’t tunnel into brick, but they still crawl in through the cracks in the mortar. That’s what happens in Zoë Geltman’s playful, energetic new play A(U)NTS!, now playing at the Brick in Williamsburg. Mixing workplace comedy with an insect extravaganza, this play looks to answer questions about gender, how biology shapes identity, and whether a collective can drown out the desires of the individual.

Thanks for being a member of City Paper! Ramona, creators of beautiful indie rock from Tijuana, sound like the final act of a romantic comedy with a happy ending. Their newest music, the recently released 7-song EP Portales, is just as easy to listen to as their biggest hits from a decade ago.

Thanks for being a member of City Paper! In his 1917 short film The Immigrant, Charlie Chaplin presented his iconic Little Tramp as a penniless immigrant coming to America by boat. Chaplin’s shorts showcased his ability to celebrate underdogs and imbue the silent film era’s slapstick humor with a new emotional depth, laying the groundwork for full-length masterpieces like Modern Times and one of our favorites here at City Paper, City Lights.

Word count: 1255Paragraphs: 27After the Atlantic Theater Company shut down performances over a labor dispute with backstage employees in early January, Mona Pirnot’s new play I’m Assuming You Know David Greenspan was shelved along with Eliya Smith’s Grief Camp. The parties reached a tentative agreement in early March, paving the way for both plays to return—starting with Greenspan, a solo show built around the downtown legend of the same name.
