If Judith Jarosz’s infectious energy and David Fuller’s quiet confidence are any indication of what Theatre 2020: Visions for a New Millennium will be like, then expect their new theater endeavor to be serious, and seriously entertaining. “We look at everything like an opportunity,” Jarosz, whose personality is as fiery as her mane of red […]

Brooklyn Heights People: David Adjmi
Brooklyn Heights resident David Adjmi was one of ten scribes, and the only playwright, awarded the 2010 Whiting Writers’ Award last night. His initial reaction on the honor? “I was really gobsmacked when they told me,” Adjmi said, as only a writer can. Unlike so many other distinctions for which writers vie, the Whiting Writers’ […]

Brooklyn Heights People: David Kramer
Raised in what he calls the small town of the Upper West Side, Brooklyn Heights resident David Kramer now builds small towns of his own. Sort of.

But as a regular concertgoer throughout the region, I can say with conviction that the choir at First Presbyterian is worth the trip to Henry Street, regardless […]

Brooklyn Heights People: David Wieder BH Playground Committee President
In a society where children often have more highly developed social lives than their parents, it’s still surprising to discover that playgrounds have “committees.” But as this relative newcomer to the borough is learning, in Brooklyn nearly everything is backed by a powerful yet friendly organization of motivated but not overbearing citizens. Why should playgrounds, […]

Brooklyn Heights People: Tom van den Bout, BHA President
As President of the Brooklyn Heights Association and a longtime resident, Tom van den Bout’s (@tvdbout) got a whole lotta BH pride. He could wax poetic about the neighborhood, its people, and its prime location for hours. So it was with some reluctance and a sly smile that he divulged his least favorite thing about the […]
