Combine a fully stocked bar, the hottest of today's tunes setting the atmosphere and short plays everyone can relate to, and you have one of the most innovative pieces of theater currently playing in NYC.  Play/Date at Fat Baby is perfect for a first date or a group of friends who love art and drinking equivalently.

Conceived by Blake McCarty, Play/Date is directed exquisitely by Michael Counts, who positions his troupe of actors perfectly for audience interaction and observation.  In the play's three acts we meet some wise bartenders who know a thing or three about love, watch text conservations unfold, and witness first dates that are doomed for failure within the first five minutes.  With the show's slew of missed connections, rejections and sexual innuendoes, you might learn something about the NY dating scene that will make your next outing a much happier experience.

You may even want to see Play/Date more than once: I guarantee over the course of the evening you'll have missed something.  Often three plays are going on at once, so it's up to you to decide which one to latch on to.  Among the stories are a blind date of a single mom and the man whose charm wears off fast, an intimate party in a bathroom stall, and a cheating wife texting a husband who isn't fooled by her deception.  Incorporating facebook, instagram, selfies, grindr and the definitive nuances that make up our generation, Play/Date is worth seeing, so get on over to Fat Baby and drink up this show!
