Stranger, smaller-room, and in-the-know Scope NYC picks for Saturday, May 30.
That title is doing exactly what a deep-cut title should do: sounding slightly unhinged and totally intentional.
Spectacle showing Manchurian Avenger is the kind of curatorial left turn that makes a Saturday feel less predictable.
Anthology plus a title this spare suggests a real experimental-film crowd rather than a casual movie night.
House of Yes plus a title this blunt usually means the premise is better experienced before it is explained.
A nerdy charity drag show at Purgatory sounds like a real self-selected scene instead of generic nightlife packaging.
Neo-noir cabaret at The Red Pavilion is exactly the sort of heavily stylized night that belongs here.
Robert Wilson and the CIVIL warS reads like one of those uncompromising archival programs that only lands in a room like Anthology.
Piano karaoke at Sid Gold's is still one of the city's better niche-social formats when you want the crowd to do half the show.
A fake-keynote setup at Caveat is the right kind of comedy-brain weird for this list.
A late Close Up session like this is for people who want the night to get more specific, not more convenient.
