NYC Deep Cuts for Sunday, May 10

Stranger, smaller-room, and in-the-know Scope NYC picks for Sunday, May 10.

Dates

Sections

Events

  1. Fist Church

    3:00 PM · Spectacle

    A Spectacle afternoon title that reads like a dare, and probably rewards the person who chooses the stranger Sunday path.

  2. Dead Mom Club

    4:00 PM · Mama Tried

    A tiny-bar listing with a title that lands somewhere between grief group and punk flyer, which is exactly the appeal.

  3. The Plagiarists

    4:15 PM · Anthology Film Archives

    Anthology in the late afternoon with a title about authorship trouble is a good low-key cinephile bet.

  4. Funny Money: A comedy show about money

    5:00 PM · Caveat

    Caveat’s best listings tend to have a premise, and comedy about money is at least honest about the city’s favorite subject.

  5. Mal Viver

    5:00 PM · Spectacle

    A Spectacle slot for the Portuguese companion piece crowd, better for a deliberate detour than a casual movie night.

  6. The Gods of Times Square

    6:00 PM · Low Cinema

    Low Cinema showing a Times Square documentary is an oddly perfect match of subject, venue, and Sunday-city mythology.

  7. Stereo Mandrax (FREE w/ RSVP): Lea Bertucci & Cleek Schrey Bentley Anderson Lampshade

    7:00 PM · Pianos

    A free Pianos bill with Lea Bertucci in the mix is more interesting than its Lower East Side wrapper suggests.

  8. Viver Mal

    7:30 PM · Spectacle

    The second half of the Mal Viver/Viver Mal mirror, for anyone willing to let Spectacle dictate the evening.

  9. Finger Bang

    8:00 PM · C'mon Everybody

    C'mon Everybody with a title this blunt is not pretending to be polished, which is part of why it belongs here.

  10. Burlesque Open Stage (with Tallulah Talons)

    9:00 PM · Club Cumming

    Club Cumming’s open-stage listings can be hit-or-miss, but Tallulah Talons gives this one enough downtown specificity.
