Lewis Forever and Ever

I’d like to offer you a special Thursday night outing recommendation. The performance/sibling collective Lewis Forever is in residence for three more weeks at The New Museum, and doing work in progress showings in the theater. The 4-sibling family is full of halfsies - half-Jew, half-Dominican, half-NYC, half-Berlin, but is flawless in their interactions as a whole. Last week was their first evening, and I walked out of the theater with a huge grin, full belly, and a lot to continue to chew on. They slyly played with the audience’s expectations about their family and the collective notion of family, fed us starving artist in berlin specialties, and got the entire audience dancing and throwing our arms in the air to blasting Animal Collective. They’ve got pitch-perfect style, hair and musical sensibilities, and somehow make you feel part of this insanely intelligent and slightly perplexing family. Go see them, and let me know what they are up to this week.
