Holiday Treats Abound!

Theater:

Mummenschanz: Act fast if you want to catch this talented European group. They are at the Skirball Theatre, NYU only through Nov. 30. The audience interaction brings peals of laughter from the audience, which is filled with children. Bring the little ones, but this will delight children of all ages. Info: mummenschanz.com/en

Side Show: This revival has been restaged by Oscar winning director Bill Condon. It is the story of famed Siamese twins Daisy and Violet Hilton. Emily Padgett and Erin Davie do impressive justice to the beautiful score, especially the show stopping, “I will never Leave You.” The cast of human oddities notwithstanding, this is a crowd pleaser. St. James Theatre, 44th and Broadway. Info: sideshowbroadway.com
