David Brighton’s Space Oddity
Tarrytown Music Hall
Far from a typical cover band, SPACE ODDITY is live theater and a musical journey through David Bowie’s career, starring David Brighton, a performer who is widely considered to be the closest one can get to Bowie himself. The costumes and staging reflect Bowie’s artistry and evolving identities. Brighton has been performing SPACE ODDITY for over 20 years, and when Bowie was alive, the two shared a stage and starred in a commercial together.
Tickets $45-$75
On view until February 28th
“Home Sweet Home” at the Flinn Gallery, Greenwich Library
In “Home Sweet Home,” four women artists (Brigid Kennedy, Misla, Mary Tooley Parker and Nitza Tufiño) communicate the physical and emotional meaning of home. Across styles and mediums, the artists provide a glimpse into the places they call home and the environments, furnishings, and textiles that define those intimate spaces.
