Hamptons summer arts calendar: Shakespeare, gallery shows, and a one-man hot‑dog history

LTV's community calendar listed summer arts and family events across the South Fork.

Upcoming highlights include an outdoor performance of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night at historic Sylvester Manor (Shelter Island) with gates opening at 5:30 p.m. and a $40 ticket price (free for children 10 and under). The Women's Arts Center of the Hamptons is showing an exhibition called "Splash" Thursdays through Sundays until Aug. 16. The South Fork Natural History Museum will host eco hikes through Aug. 13; the next scheduled eco hike is July 28 at Ponquag Beach from 10 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. (a Southampton beach parking permit is required).

Christine Sampson and LTV also previewed a one-man show, "Feldman, world's 1st hot dog," in which Michael Quinn portrays Charles Feldman in a minimalist set; the performance debuts July 31 at LTV Studios. Quinn said he wanted audiences to "relive a little bit of that past and maybe that family connection and that history." The calendar included ticket and time details for each event; viewers were directed to event websites for more information.
