Fuerza Bruta: Look Up in NYC for $39 – EXP 11/2/2011

cheapskatLeave a comment

Groupon is offering 50% off Fuerza Bruta: Look Up (80 – 41 instant savings) for limited time. Limit 10 per order. Reservation required; subject to availability. Valid for selected shows through January 29, 2012. Deal expires November 2, 2011.

Fuerza Bruta takes a troupe of experienced dancers, aerialists, and actors, and combines their skills with some of the most remarkable sets ever designed. There’s a giant water-filled stage above the audience, along with walls that seem to let the performers defy gravity: they swim overhead, move through solid objects, and even maneuver through the crowd. It’s as much an elaborate house party (complete with thumping techno and world music) and an interactive art project as it is a story, so make sure you arrive early to get in the mood, and wear comfy shoes that allow for dancing!

Today Only: Three-Course American-Fare Prix Fixe Dinner w/ Wine for Two at David Burke at Bloomingdale's NYC – EXP 10/28/2011

cheapskatLeave a comment

Today only, October 28, 2011, Groupon is offering Three-Course American-Fare Prix Fixe Dinner for Two with Wine at David Burke at Bloomingdale’s in Manhattan NYC for $79 ($176.90 Value). Voucher is good for 1 year. Limit 3 per person. Not valid until 10/29/11. Limit 1 per table, 2 for tables of 4 or more. Dine-in only. Valid for dinner only.

The three-course prix fixe dinner for two at David Burke at Bloomingdale’s includes:

  • One bottle of chardonnay, cabernet sauvignon, or sangria (up to a $55 value)
  • Two appetizers (up to a $24 value)
  • Two main dishes (up to a $50 value)
  • Two desserts (up to an $17.90 value)
  • Two glasses of Guenoc port (a $30 value)

Chef David Burke, the foodsmith behind David Burke at Bloomingdale’s, draws upon his training at the Culinary Institute of America as he plates up a special fine-dining prix fixe menu. Diners can toast the coming meal with a bottle of Linen Winery chardonnay or Guenoc cabernet sauvignon or perhaps a 1-liter aquarium of sangria swimming with 15 fruity ingredients. Lobster bisque or a leafy salad serves as the starter course, revving up appetite engines for mains such as seared scottish salmon with veggies and tabouli or lobster mac ‘n’ cheese. Steak frites reminisce about days at the Sorbonne, while garden vegetables, ricotta, and fresh parmesan mingle in the penne pasta. Desserts in both solid and liquid form seal the meal, followed by two glasses of port that wave goodnight to dining couples from the starboard side of the table.

Orchestra Seating for Cirque du Soleil's Zarkana at the Radio City Music Hall NYC for $62 – EXP 9/3/2011

cheapskatLeave a comment

Groupon is offering tickets to Zarkana from Cirque du Soleil at Radio City Music Hall for only $62 each ($140 value) for a limited time. Seats will be located in the orchestra or first mezzanine section. Zarkana performs at least five days every week and Groupon buyers can choose any show from now through Saturday, October 8, 2011. Limit 8 per person. Must purchase together to sit together. Deal expires September 3, 2011.

Cirque du Soleil combines stunning acrobatics, live music, surreal costumes, and a profusion of imagination for riveting spectacles such as Zarkana, a surrealist rock opera that lures guests into an otherworldly realm. The story follows Zark, a magician who has lost his powers of illusion, as he searches for his misplaced girlfriend and invisible car keys. Trapeze artists and acrobats fly through the air as he dodges a slithering snake-woman and a spider that traps human snacks in its giant web. Projections of cascading petals and flickering flames allow viewers to make hand shadows of rabbits during the show.

Helmed by Francois Girard, creator of the award-winning film The Red Violin and director of the Canadian Opera Company’s acclaimed production of Oedipus Rex, Zarkana fuses the magic of a concert with the artistry of a theater performance. As one of the largest theaters in the world, Radio City Music Hall provides a grand frame for the performance and enough room for post-show magic carpet races.

Bloomspot is also offering orchestra seating for Zarkana from Cirque du Soleil at Radio City Music Hall, but they are charging a little bit more at $95/ticket and they have few shows to choose from. Bloomspot deal expires September 5, 2011.
