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

Still More Theater Saturday - Love Story

We received complimentary tickets to Love Story for review purposes. Any and all opinions expressed here are our own.


What: Love Story

Where: The Tank
             312 W. 36th St.
             New York, NY

Who: Recommended for Ages 16 and up due to subject matter, which includes grief and death

When: Through May 17, 2026


Love Story is a show that deals heavily with grief and death, and as such, may be triggering for some people. Although Maria has died, she is still trapped in the memory of those who love her. The whole show is like a metaphor for the grief process. It stops and starts, and doesn't always proceed linearly, much like a person working their way through the stages of grief. 


Despite its subject matter, the show does not actually feel overwhelmingly dark. The tone is surprisingly light with only hints of sadness. Much of the show focuses on mundane things and not on Maria's death. Plus, there are humorous moments sprinkled throughout the show. It is never completely light and happy, however, because there is still a sadness at its center. At its heart, this is a show about learning to let go.


And that's our view. For more about Love Story or to purchase tickets, visit thetanknyc.org/calendar-1/2026/2/18/lovestory

Tune in tomorrow for this week's Sunday Scoop.
