Swingin’ Victorians
Saturday, December 13: Sexy singles? Victorian history? Hell, yes! Get some exercise, learn about a nice nabe, and, most important, meet other singles during a holiday-themed walking tour of Brooklyn Heights that explores the neighborhood’s 19th-century history (including the famed “Moonstruck” house, pictured).
1 pm. Meet in front of Borough Hall [Court St. at Remsen Street in Downtown, (917) 803-8551]. $15 (cash only).
Beer ’n’ deer
Sunday, December 14: Nothing in the world is better than a beer tasting. Except for a beer tasting with local brews, a live DJ, and all the venison you can eat! Sample suds from some local breweries while you shoomze and nosh on delectable deer.
3–7 pm. Flatbush Farm [76 St. Marks Ave. at Flatbush Avenue, (718) 622-3276]. Dishes, $8–$20.
Wilkommen, bienvenue!
Monday, December 15: Let Gigi la Femme (pictured) and her bawdy burlesque babes tickle you in a seductive sex-soaked soiree. This is your last chance to catch Legs Malone and Peekaboo Pointe in the flesh as they strut those endless gams because, after tonight, it’s curtains on this three-part series.
10 pm. Public Assembly [70 North Sixth St. between Kent and Wythe avenues in Williamsburg, (718) 384-4586]. $10.
It is alive!
Saturday, December 20: Keep the Christ in Christmas by heading to New Utrecht Reformed Church in Bensonhurst, which will raise the sackcloth on its annual “Living Nativity” scene, complete with live sheep, live apostles, live wise men and a little baby Jesus at the center of it all (actual baby Jesus played by a doll).
3–6 pm. New Utrecht Reformed Church [18th Avenue between 83rd and 84th streets in Bensonhurst, (718) 236-0678].
Jew jokes
Sunday, December 21: There’s just something about a menorah that brings on those Adam Sandler–esque jokes. So tonight, following in the tradition of Jewish comedy, celebrate the first night of Hanukkah with martinis, latkes and some cutting-edge kosher standup. (Over 21 only, though.)
7:30 pm. Congregation B’nai Avraham [117 Remsen St. between Clinton and Henry streets in Brooklyn Heights, (718) 596-4840 ext 18]. $18.
