What if "traditional marriage" isn't traditional at all? Turns out, the equal partnership we're advocating for in modern relationships? It’s actually more traditional than the gender roles we've come to associate with it — gender equity is the prototype. For much of human history, women were valued for their contributions as much as men, childcare was shared across the whole community, and the idea that two people alone should raise children and meet each other's every need simply did not exist. It was a series of shifts over the centuries that narrowed everything down to the two-person household we now take for granted. And within that shift, we lost something essential. Writer and cultural satirist Azie Dungey takes us on a journey through human history to reveal that our partnership ideals are closer to our ancient origins than the "traditional marriage" of 100 years ago — which, it turns out, was a blip.
Azie Dungey is a WGA-nominated writer for her work on Netflix’s Emmy-nominated comedy Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and has been a writer on shows such as Harlem (Amazon Prime), Girls5Eva (Netflix), Rutherford Falls (NBC), and Sweetbitter (Starz). She is best known as writer and star of her critically- acclaimed YouTube series Ask A Slave, a satirical critique of race and gender with over 2.5 million views. For this series she was featured on NPR, BBC World, MSNBC, New York Magazine, and The Washington Post. A graduate of Tisch School of the Arts at NYU in drama and anthropology, she has been a visiting scholar to Yale, Brown University, Columbia, and was a Fellow-in- Residence at the Center for the Study of Democracy, St Mary’s College. Azie is African American and Pamunkey/Mattaponi (Virginia Tribes) and she is committed to confronting issues of race, history, and social injustice with grace, compassion, and humor.
We will explore:
<ul><li>The resistance, challenges, and social implications we face as we attempt to return gender equality back to its roots.</li><li>How hunter-gatherer societies define gender roles within marital partnerships and family system.</li><li>How traditional courtship roles centered the female desire, and women were considered the more sexually aggressive of the gender even into the age of antiquity</li><li>How the idea of the "nuclear family" (man, wife, children) developed only 150 years ago.</li></ul>
Agenda: 6:30pm – Doors open. Grab drinks and snacks before settling into a seat (first come first serve!) 6:50pm – Host welcomes and intros 7:00pm – Lecture begins 8:00pm – Q&amp;A plus dedicated 1-on-1 time with the speaker. Grab another drink and chat about your thoughts with other attendees. 8:30pm – Event concludes
🤝 You'll enjoy this if you're someone who:
<ul><li>loves Lectures on Tap or social lectures of any kind...think Ted Talks in bars</li><li>likes meeting new people and learning new things</li><li>loves history, literature, art, re-examining events, or niche internet rabbit holes</li><li>wants try something different for their next casual night out, why not? 🍻🤓💭</li></ul>

92NY

Brian Tyler Cohen doesn’t just comment on politics — he dissects the machinery behind it.
Now the #1 New York Times bestselling author, MSNBC contributor, and creator of one of the most-watched independent political platforms in the country comes to 92NY to discuss his new book, The Day After: How to Wield Power in a Post-Trump World.
A leading progressive voice in digital media, Cohen has built a following of millions by translating the chaos of the political moment into clear, unsparing analysis. In The Day After, he turns from diagnosis to prescription, offering his own argument for how progressives should think about power, why he believes the Democrats have too often failed to use it effectively, and what he sees as the stakes for American democracy in the years ahead.
Part political playbook, part manifesto, the book lays out Cohen’s views on the structural fights shaping the future of American government, from the Supreme Court and executive authority to economic policy, voting rights, and climate action. His central question: not just how elections are won, but what governing should look like afterward.
Join Cohen for a timely conversation about the ideas driving his new book, his rise as one of the most influential independent political commentators of his generation, and how the new media landscape is transforming political influence and public debate.

The American Theatre of Actors Inc

Shangri-La-La: A Comedy Musical About Siegfried &amp; Roy
What happens when two ambitious young immigrants come to America, reinvent themselves in Las Vegas, charm the world, build a rhinestone kingdom at The Mirage, and then discover that even white tigers have limits?
Shangri-La-La is a fast-moving new comedy musical inspired by the rise of Siegfried &amp; Roy — with original songs, Vegas glamour, impossible dreams, outrageous costumes, magic, friendship, immigrant reinvention, Steve Wynn, Bugsy Siegel, and just enough tiger danger to keep everyone alert.
Written by Mike Meier &amp; Peter Giambalvo, the show is part showbiz fairy tale, part immigrant dream, part Vegas fever dream — and, yes, inspired by actual events. Unfortunately.
The New York performances are part of the Midtown International Theater Festival and will take place at the American Theatre of Actors in Midtown Manhattan.
Come for the music. Stay for the magic. Leave with a renewed respect for tigers.
Performances: July 25 and July 26, 2026 Venue: American Theatre of Actors, New York City Tickets: Available through the Midtown International Theater Festival (MITF)/Eventbrite /TheaterMania
