Time to hoist Old Glory, get the hot dogs on the barbecue and look to the skies. Macy’s once again generously blows a million dollars into the skies, in the fireworks display to top all others. This July fourth, instead of making New Yorkers crowd onto the East River waterfront either in midtown or around the Brooklyn Bridge, the fireworks will be launched from both sites – and a few in between. You could choose to mark the day with the national pastime instead, heading up to Yankee Stadium as the World Champion Yanks take on the highly rated Baltimore Orioles, but nothing beats seeing New York’s skyline lit up by Macy’s incandescent independence celebration.

Never mind the dodgy art works and curatorial aspirations, nor the pioneering techie pretensions of http://www.bowie.net, or even the more than passable performance as Andy Warhol in that awful Basquiat movie. The Thin White Duke is back to doing what he does best. The 1990s were quiet, a decade in which his art world pursuits captured more attention than his music, but now the man who thrilled you with everything from ‘Starman’ and ‘Rebel Rebel’ to ‘Young Americans’ and ‘China Girl’ is back in NYC for a much anticipated encore.

Sam Shepard’s plays have been tackled in many forms and formats on the Dublin stage in recent years and, now, ‘Fool for Love’ gets another outing at the Crypt Arts Centre. Presented by Wild Catz and directed by Ger ? Sé, ‘Fool for Love’ tells the story of transient lovers May and Eddie. As they spin around the room in a relentless struggle for power and truth we see, through recollections and dreams, multiple versions of a fierce and fatal love story.
