Phish’s New Year’s Eve Run

Once the legendary improvisational jam band, Phish, wraps up the fourth show of its four-show run to close out Madison Square Garden’s 2018 concert calendar, the band will have played its 60th capacity concert at the storied venue. Only Billy Joel has played more shows, or more sold-out shows, at The World’s Most Famous Arena. The band plays two sets nightly, and is known for not repeating songs during any run of shows. All 20,789 seats for each of the four filled up instantly, but tickets are available until the last second on official resale sites such as SeatGeek or Stubhub.

November 23-December 30

The Nutcracker

The New York City Ballet returns to the David H. Koch Theater at Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts for its annual performance of “George Balanchine’s The Nutcracker” to music of Tchaikovsky, during a 45-show run that includes two shows on weekends and Dec. 19, 21, 26 and 28.

Trompe L'Oeil Triumphant

Early works by Stephen Posen (b. 1939)—New York-based artist and, incidentally, father of fashion designer Zac Posen—are on display in “Threads: Paintings From the 1960s and ’70s,” an ambitious two-part exhibition at Vito Schnabel Projects (thru June 23, this page) and its sister gallery in St. Moritz, Switzerland (July 28–Sept. 2). “Untitled” (detail, left), a large-scale, photorealist painting of cloth-covered boxes from 1970, has never been publicly shown in New York until now.
