New York Car Rentals and Brooklyn Lyceum

The Brooklyn Lyceum, also know as Public Bath #7, is a place where you can experience a piece of Brooklyn's history. Coming to see the Only the Dead series with your New York car rental will provide an interesting history of Brooklyn. Taking place in the Green-Wood Cemetery, the tales of the dead will come alive with inspiration. The idea came from the history of late 19th century Brooklyn, a time when the area was one of the most culturally vibrant cities in the world. In the 21st century, the area experienced a revitalization. The Brooklyn Lyceum is there to challenge your intellect and imagination through its plays in one of the area's historic buildings.

When you visit the Brooklyn Lyceum with your New York car rental you will discover a brilliant comedy troop named Frogmen of the Gowanus. They offer one-man shows, a monthly ten minute play tournament, and other special events. The one-man shows include

  • In the Shadow of the Third Raid and Curses
  • The Happy Happy Smile Hour and a Half Variety Show
  • SwampKing

A Special Connection

Visiting the Lyceum with your New York car rental will bring you to a partnership between the Lyceum and the Green-Wood Cemetery. The Green-Wood Cemetery is one of the leading cultural and historic institutions in Brooklyn to visit with your New York car rental. Musical and theatrical performances take place in a chapel built in 1911 at Green-Wood.

The Living Dead

In the chapel of the Green-Woods Cemetery is where the Only the Dead play series takes place. They are the stories of the people buried in the cemetery. Even better, the funds raised from the play go towards a fund to restore the monuments in the cemetery. The first tale, 31 Bond, is about a sensational crime that takes place in the Bond Street District that took place in 1857. The story covers the media coverage of the situation, and is worth the trip with your New York car rental. Show times are Thursdays and Fridays at 8 p.m., Saturday at 7 p.m., and Sunday at 3 p.m. Tickets are $40 at the door, $30 online, and $15 for students and seniors.

The Brooklyn Lyceum is a great place to visit with your New York car rental. According to Time Out's New York's Essential New York Issue, the Lyceum is "a renovated bathhouse with a stage lying where people once waded, the Lyceum is the type of grand old room one would expect to find in Berlin rather than Brooklyn". There are several options for you to choose from when you go to the Lyceum. There are both small and large performances. So come on down to 227 4th Avenue in Brooklyn to see what is waiting to come alive.
