"Birthday" was a big hit with those celebrating their special day yesterday and "Back in the USSR" had the former hippies shaking their ponytails at the season finale. Movies in the Park and on Broadway are your next free events.
"My Big Fat Greek Wedding" is the first free movie playing on Broadway. Wednesday, Aug 19th at 8:30 pm.

"I had to go to Greek school, where I learned valuable lessons such as, "If Nick has one goat and Maria has nine, how soon will they marry?"
She shoulda been a contenda for an Oscar that year.
