Guild Hall — Attraction in Town of East Hampton

While we New Yorkers are fortunate to call Broadway ours, Hamptonites are graced to have several fine theatre venues east of the canal. Guild Hall, located in East Hampton, offers an intimate setting for great theatre, art shows, lectures and more. It is very much a part of the community fabric.

Chuck Nice was a fun counterpart to the information presented when he was throwing chards of comic relief darts at us to keep us awake while surfing backwards, forwards, backwards again and again...Creatives are truly the best messengers of new science and new media information to the public at large and they were...

Extra tickets were at the box office, but the director asked that they not be sold to about ten people waiting. However, she generously invited us to sit in an overflow room and watch the proceedings on a screen. The room was comfortable and the air was mold free. Perhaps the decision to keep the unclaimed tickets stemmed from the people sparring to get these tickets, or maybe to hold the unclaimed tickets for late comers. It all worked out. Smart guests on stage, both well versed in constitutional law. I like discussions about our constitution, especially with legal scholars. Staff were pleasant. Now that Guild Hall has live streaming from the MET Definitely...
