New York City is packed with amazing culture and inspiring art, but sometimes it’s difficult to break the Morningside-bubble and experience it all first-hand. “Where Art Thou” is a weekly guide to interesting and notable lectures, events, and performances for the literary/musically/theatrically-inclined on campus.

At 8 PM at the Glicker-Milstein theater, 70 tired actors and production team members have labored for exactly 1 day to bring you High School Musical, CMTS’ 2018 24-Hour Musical. $3 tickets.
