365 Things to Do in Boston - New Tips Daily

Andy Warhol’s haphazard short film Kitchen epitomized life at his famed Factory. Featuring Edie Sedgwick in her signature charmingly stuporous state, the directionless, no-budget film told no story and had no script (at least no script with lines Edie could recall). Tonight the Gob Squad, an avant-garde troupe of UK and German actors, recreate the film — live onstage — through pointedly bewildered acting and movie clips in Gob Squad’s Kitchen. Throughout the performance, Squad members seemingly lose interest, pulling members of the audience into the debacle as actors and conspirators. The immersive experience runs for three nights only.

When: January 13 to the 15th 7:30pm

Enjoy an afternoon with coffee and chocolate at Aragosta's. To me it's a perfect way to end the weekend.

"After a long walk around the waterfront or a stroll through the North End, find your way to Aragosta at the Fairmont Battery Wharf for the Ultimate Chocolate Bar. From 2:00-5:00pm every Saturday and Sunday afternoon, the harbor-side restaurant serves the coffee, cappuccino and handmade (with melted Italian chocolate) hot chocolate topped with an array of sweet whipped creams or candy. Each sweet, steaming cup of cocoa costs $4 though you can spike yours for an additional $4 or add the chef's dessert tasting for an additional $6. Call 617.994.9001 for more details on this delightfully cozy way to spend a cold afternoon."

When: Saturday's and Sunday's starting at 2pm until 5pm

Would this be an awkward compliment..."those new glasses really magnify your eyebrows" or is it just an awkward observation? My problem is I can make an awkward compliment without trying, when I do try, they really don't come off as awkward...or do they?

Comedic acts from all over New England perform their routines of scripted material and some that is made up on the spot.
