NYC24's most playful issue takes you for a run around the park, into a skater's secret world, and to the woods of New Jersey, where soldiers battle a killer alien. Whether using musical instruments and computers, puppets and marionettes, video games or surf boards, New Yorkers delight themselves in many kinds of adventures and performances as they cope with real life.
