The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

Local Thespian-Mom Is Latest "Woman of Distinction"

Holy cow, I almost missed this. And I was just talking to Siobhan O'Neill last weekend about her longtime role with PLG Arts and BeFreeGlobal. And here she is getting the Woman of Distinction award from State Senator (soon to be Borough President if you ask me) Eric Adams:


Here's the link to the announcement and Siobhan's bio. You might know her from her years mounting Midsummer Nights Dream at the Imagination Playground. They're taking this year off, but who know, maybe they'll return with MacBeth! Or in honor of the latest weather trend, The Tempest! Congrats! Exclamation Point!
