Now that Earth Day is here, and NYC has finally sprung into full Spring mode, let us rejoice by putting on a floral ensemble or cut off jeans to hit up the outdoors for some much needed sunshine. Before penciling in an afternoon picnic at Maria Hernandez Park, channel your inner eco-thespian at The Bushwick Starr who has a Go Green line-up of Earth Day plays and activities this weekend.

The Bushwick Starr is hosting the 4th Annual eco-playwriting program by the Big Green Theater. Shows will be Saturday and Sunday, with a special preview event on Friday night sponsored by ArtLab—an ongoing blog and series at the interface of art and science founded by Maryam Zaringhalam.
