I started this blog with one daughter, kept it up with the other, to spend time together doing something we enjoyed.
However, things change and people evolve. My daughters are older, busier, and not as interested in writing.
From now on this blog will be mostly mom with occasional contributions from my daughters and maybe even my husband.
Nothing else will change. We'll still focus on sharing fun places to go, fun things to do, and more, and we would  still love to hear your views too

More Theater Monday - Into the Gap: Songs of Protest and Hope

We received complimentary tickets to Into the Gap: Songs of Protest and Hope. Any and all opinions expressed here are our own.



What: Into the Gap: Songs of Protest and Hope

Where: Don't Tell Mama
             343 W. 46th St.
             New York, NY

When: This event took place on Thursday, April 24 & Saturday, April 26, 2025

The Inkwell Singers recently completed a pair of concerts at New York City's acclaimed cabaret venue, Don't Tell Mama. The concerts marked their debut performances at the venue. Although they are usually a quartet,  these particular concerts mainly featured only the male half of the act, Andy Rice and Matthew Schermerhorn. The group's other half, Kara and Daniela Masciangelo, only made guest appearances. 

These concerts were designed to address the despair and helplessness many of us feel in the wake of current events, including the results of the most recent elections. Song choices included Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young's "Teach Your Children", The Beatles' "Let It Be", and Kander and Ebb's "Razzle Dazzle". There were also songs by Frank Sinatra, Peter, Paul, and Mary, Rodgers and Hammerstein, and more.  It was not only a nice 70-minute or so respite from the problems of the real world, but a reminder to keep hope alive and always do what we can to change the world for the better.

And that's our view. The show will be streaming on June 14. For more about that or to purchase a ticket, visit furshmedia.stellartickets.com/events/inkwell-singers/occurrences. For more about The Inkwell Singers in general or to find out where they'll be appearing next, visit
