NYC 2012 Day #6

Ahh Sunday.  A day of rest and contemplation.  So while Jackie was in the shower, I booked it on the subway down to Donut Plant to bring back an assortment of donuts (my favorite being the creme brulee one...).  Jackie mocked me for getting a dozen assorted (since her parents had left to go get rush tickets for The Best Man with James Earl Jones and Angela Lansbury) so up we went to the Coxes and Kelly DeHaan- but Kelly was full from eating previously mentioned Crack Pie from Momofuku Milk Bar.  So Jackie and I ate 6 donuts each.  Not really...but they were a great treat for later.
Jackie and I then headed over to the TKTS play line (where we made friends with a family in town for Father's Day from Staten Island.  When he found out we were from Utah, I was fully expecting a Book of Mormon musical question but instead he talked to us about Mitt Romney (he didn't like him).
We got tickets to Tribes a play Off-Broadway (in fact, way down in the village) directed and in the same theatre that we saw Our Town in previously.  The director (David Cromer) does great work and this play was highly recommended.
We went down near the theatre to shop for the girls---and eat lunch at Peanut Butter and Company.  Tribes was fantastic.  It's about a deaf boy whose parent's forced him to read lips and never learn sign language.  He falls in love with a girl who is going deaf and teaches him sign.  There were some great performances and it's in a cool small space.
After that we booked it up to the Nederlander Theatre for Newsies- which starts at a weird time on Sunday's.  We wandered around looking for food- but gave up (but we looked at a cool private dinner going on at Wolfgang Puck's Steakhouse...).
Newsies was fantastic.  Jeremy Jordan was awesome and so was all of the dancing.  We had a talk back afterward (but was sad when our friend from Utah, Thayne Jaspersen, didn't come out afterward- we had done 1776 together at Hale). 
After Newsies it was time for our annual dinner at Max Brenners.  It was delicious (but really dark...like- we had to open our phones to read the menu and see our food).
Only one more day left in the Big Apple.
