The Lifespan of a Fact
A magazine fact checker takes apart a celebrated essay line by line and the author fights back. Act II runs the three hander for five weeks in its small room on Butler Avenue.
Rice's Market (Tuesdays)
Thirty acres of flea market, farm stands and antique dealers going since the 1870s. Gates at 7am and it thins out by midday, so come early and bring cash.
