Jill Newman Productions<\/a> brings the talented trailblazer to the Highline Ballroom on January 17th at 11:30p.m. Is this a good way to spend MLK weekend? We say, most definitely.<\/p>\n

How to get there: <\/strong>Highline is accessible via 14th Street A, C, E trains. (431 West 16th St., 212. 414.5994) Visit the venue’s site for ticket information.
