Boys' Latin High School Takes Flash Mobs to the Stage With "PHLash: A Mob Story"
To “give voice” to his students’ experiences living in the city, drama instructor Gregory DeCandia proposed they create an original work. “I knew I wanted to explore the teen flash mobs due to the fact that I would be teaching the actual demographic that had participated in these events,” DeCandia says.

PW's Picks for Valentine's Day
Valentine’s Day isn’t about showering your significant other with gifts. Nor is it an excuse to sit home and weep uncontrollably while listening to Lionel Richie’s greatest hits on repeat. It’s about making time in your busy schedule to enjoy the people you care about, unapologetically eating your weight in chocolate and maybe getting laid. So whether you’re single or attached, here are some things going on in the city that’ll help you realize the true meaning of the holiday.

We’ve certainly all have moments when we declare, “I could make [...]

Local Love: Kiki Hughes Boutique

If you look carefully there’s an obvious, yet subtle welcome to the store. A slender, curling tree reaching [...]
