If you're in Brooklyn you must definitely put Brooklyn's history on your list of things to do. On your travels with your passenger van rentals company Image Rent A Car, why don't you try adding a little culture?
It all started with one man...
Eric Richmond had always been attracted to Brooklyn's history ever since 1988. He admired Brooklyn's vision of becoming a powerhouse in business, arts, and culture. Today his contribution of Brooklyn's past can be seen in the Brooklyn Lyceum, sometimes called the "Public Bath #7". Brooklyn was a cultural hub in the late 19th century. Today, in the 21st Century the city of Brooklyn aims to keep it that way. So when on your travels with your passenger van rentals company from Image Rent A Car, remember to check out the Brooklyn Lyceum!
Curtains up at the Brooklyn Lyceum...
The Brooklyn Lyceum shows a weekly comedy troupe called the Frogemen of the Gowanus, a one man show called In the Shadow of the Third Rail and Curses, The Happy Happy Smile Hour and a Half Variety Show and Swamp King are also played. With a 4000 square foot performance area, the Brooklyn Lyceum's downstairs theatre has had the pleasure of having performances of plays such as Salomr, CirquBoom's Circus of Vices and Virtues, Anthony Schwartzman's Huner Dreams, Richard II and Antony & Cleopatra.
