fuer o za o bru o ta \ f'where - zah - broo - tah \ 1: brute force 2: the new show from the creators of DE LA GUARDA 3: a 360° heart-pounding theatrical experience THEY'RE BACK!!! From the creators of De La Guarda comes a brand new original work: FUERZABRUTA. A non-stop collision of dynamic music, visceral emotion, and kinetic aerial imagery, FUERZABRUTA is one of the most exciting events of the fall season. Having already taken South America and Europe by storm, this all-new work from the creators of the revolutionary theatre spectacle De La Guarda defies easy categorization. Featuring mind-blowing visual effects that must be seen to be believed - a man running full throttle through a series of moving walls, women frolicking in a watery world suspended just inches above the audience - FUERZABRUTA is a theatrical experience that floods the senses.
JUMP isn't just about jumping. It's also about flipping, punching and kicking all executed in a jaw-dropping, gasp-inducing and gut-busting manner. This London and Fringe Festival hit has finally landed in New York - and landed with gravity-defying ease. Although JUMP is set in a traditional Korean home, its inhabitants are anything but. The entire family - the strict grandfather, the no-nonsense mother, the drunken uncle, the daughter and her suitor - love nothing more than to challenge each other in martial arts and acrobatic displays. Their skills are put to good use when burglars break into their home and get to experience the family's talent first hand. This is a rare opportunity to see the kind of action you'd see in Jackie Chan and Matrix™ movies, but see it LIVE. No second-takes, wires or special effects for these actors who went through years of extensive martial arts training. JUMP is one-part silent comedy, one-part kung fu flick and one-part gymnastic display, every ounce of it thrill-filled entertainment. 
NAKED BOYS is a traditional musical revue, in the vein of Vaudeville and high-camp American musical theater. It's only point is to celebrate the splendors of male nudity in comedy, song and dance. Musical numbers range from the screamingly funny to poignant and moving numbers. There are 15 songs in NAKED BOYS - making this 65-minute tribute to the human male, fly by in a rage of laughter and nudity! Come and see it for yourself - you'll have a great time! The Manhattan Real Estate market is on a constant upswing. In a recent article in the Wall Street Journal, New York was said to be among the safest places to hide from the housing downturn. While there is never a bad time to buy in New York, it is important to not overpay for your property. Be smart. Start going to open houses and feel out exactly what you're looking for, as well as what your price range is. Once you settle on a list of things you want, you'll soon decide on a list of things you're willing to compromise on. Every apartment in Manhattan has its compromise (walk ups, noisy street views, etc.). Regardless of what anybody says, owning a piece of the Big Apple is one of the best investments you can ever make!
