2) Matilda Jr. will be performed by the students at Xaverian High School from Mary 15th – May 18th. Tickets are $10. They also have $5 tickets at the door for students with ID. Get tickets:

UPDATE: Gas Line Rupture in Bay Ridge – 86th St. & Colonial Road
There was a large gas line rupture on 86th Street and Colonial Road to Ridge Blvd. All the homes were evacuated until they could take a reading in them.
Update: John M. shared this photo:
Residents two blocks away said they have been hearing a loud whooshing sound like a waterfall since before 5:00 pm.
National Grid has been working in Bay Ridge – on 86th Street and 3rd Avenue all week. Ridgites shared that they received upgraded gas lines. Some smelt gas in their basement the next day. The home owners called National Grid. National Grid told them the new pipes were cracked and leaking gas and replaced the pipes.

Another home owner explained that the workers tightened the pipe too much and caused it to crack. National Grid sprayed a solution on it and the pipe was bubbling with gas coming out.
Many FDNY fire trucks are on the scene. Ridgites said they were nervous after they heard so many sirens. They closed 86th Street from Colonial Road to 3rd Avenue. Ridge Blvd from 85th to 87th Street is closed as well.
This was sent out by NYC:
Update: The repair is being made. People are back at home. Some people on 87th Street complained that the smell is terrible.

A gas release led to an explosion in the hole and one National Grid worker was injured. He was rushed to NYU Lutheran Hospital with serious injuries. See story:
