A Note On Ticket Prices
The Chocolate Factory Theater now offers a tiered ticketing price structure, with the goal of remaining accessible to every person who wishes to attend our events while acknowledging the very real value of the service – namely, artistic and administrative labor – that a ticket purchase represents.
We ask that you select the option that best reflects your individual circumstances. This is not a “pay what you wish” scenario; rather, it’s “pay as much as your circumstances allow”. For context: in the absence of outside funding, a true cost ticket to a Chocolate Factory performance would be $275.
Our tiered options are as follows:

$35 (base price – the equivalent of one hour of labor for a lead artist, performer, design collaborator or technician)
$25
$15
$50
$100
$275 (true cost ticket)

Our intention here is not to create walled gardens or tiers of access based on monetary status; we’re merely trying to make our practice – of paying artists, technicians and administrative staff a fair wage (more than 80% of our annual budget goes to labor, fyi) – more sustainable (or truthfully, less unsustainable), while remaining (we hope!) accessible and welcoming to all.
As a ticket buyer, you’ll receive the same experience regardless of the price you pay. It’s general admission for everyone.
--
Performances will take place at The Chocolate Factory Theater, 38-33 24th Street, Long Island City.
S H I N E is a performance and installation using sound, video, voice, movement and audience participation to explore space as a living entity, and the delicate machinery of intentional, communal action. The work addresses the unseen mechanisms of care, the thin boundaries between call and response, and the importance of the immaterial within living systems.

Meet The Best Walking Food Tour In NYC
With countless glowing reviews that definitely speak for themselves, our culinary journey through the heart of New York City is sure to be the highlight of your trip.
Our NYC-Greenwich Secret Food Tour is not only one of our best selling tours worldwide, but it is also a widely awarded gastronomical experience. Join our expert local guides as they take you on an unforgettable exploration of the Village's most iconic and delicious foods.
We'll start with a New York classic: an everything bagel with a "schmear". Then it's on to the paradigm of New York sandwiches, Falafel. Of course, it wouldn't be a New York food tour without the pizza. As we stroll through the charming streets of the Village, we will excite your senses with sweet surprises and our exclusive Secret Dish.
If you find yourself in NYC on any given day, make sure to seize the opportunity and book our 5-star tour.
Ready to join us? Book now from the calendar on the right — and let the feast begin!
 Your guide will teach you what to look for when choosing a classic New York-style bagel, then you'll eat it.
 We'll walk to a local alehouse and indulge in a Falafel.
 You'll stop at a local cupcake bakery for a sweet little treat.
 Next up is a slice of NYC-style pizza.
 We'll check out one of the hottest gourmet doughnut & cookie shops in the city and taste why.
As with all our tours, there's our delicious Secret Dish.
*Please note: the itinerary and menu is subject to change, based on the locations' availability, weather, and other circumstances.

 Meeting Spot
We'll meet at the IFC Center - 323 6th Ave, New York, NY 10014. Take the 6th Avenue/Carmine Street exit at the West 4th Street A/B/C/D/E/F/M subway station. The IFC Center is located directly behind the subway exit.
Your guide will be waiting with an orange umbrella so they are easy to spot. 
Why the Village?
We chose the Greenwich Village district for our New York City food tour because of the district's diverse restaurant scene, deep-rooted history, architecture, and its timeless charisma. While the rest of the city was subject to the 1811 grid system, the Village was able to escape this fate because of its charming, meandering streets.
The powers that be could not be bothered to try to reroute the winding streets found here. But their loss was our gain! This was a big win, both for those residents and for us because we got to take a step back into time and stroll outside of city life without actually leaving the city!

Man of La Mancha is one of the world’s most popular musicals. Inspired by Miguel de Cervantes’ 17th-century masterwork Don Quixote and set during the Spanish Inquisition, the original 1965 production won five Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Cervantes is in prison awaiting trial during the Spanish Inquisition. He and his fellow prisoners perform a play-within-a-play, telling the story of the elderly Alonso Quijana, who renames himself “Don Quixote” and goes on a quest to right all wrongs in the world. The rousing, Spanish-inflected score includes the classic numbers “The Impossible Dream,” “I, Don Quixote,” “Dulcinea,” “I Really Like Him” and “Little Bird.”
