Do something besides see shows? I know this may be a foreign concept, but NYC has some great museums.

If you have your heart set on theatre, try Lincoln Center. You can visit the library, and there are tours of the area (the Met, Philharmonic, etc.)

Late night, you're not going to get much theatre. You can probably find some cabaret-style performances. Look into Joe's Pub, Laurie Beechman, etc. Or you can look into some off and off-off-Broadway.

Or just walk around NYC. There are great stores, restaurants, etc. There is life outside of the theatre district.

Also, get your hands on a Time Out NY magazine (or just look online.) They always have fun, random things. Updated On: 1/3/11 at 06:12 PM

Many of the strip joints are open 24/7.

Pop Tarts World is open til 9. Has to be seen to be believed. Come for the horror, leave with a hot snack on the go. Or if you're daring, try their sushi.

I just looked at the Laurie Beechman Theatre website and it didn't say they have anything going on at all this month

Go check out the NBC Studio Tour, the Rockettes BackDoor Tour, and the Top Of The Rock. Cool look into television production, stage production, and the city as a whole. If you get the city fun pass, you can save money!

The answers aren't going to be any different. Do some google searching and see what's around.

You could go down by Columbus Circle and go into the mall there, there also is the NBC Experience & Top of the Rock as someone just said. Rockefeller Plaza is great. I went to the American Girl Place by there recently when I had to kill time and it was nice.

Go to the High Line and watch people having sex in the hotel windows!

^ Darn, I missed that a couple of weeks ago.

In all honesty, some of the best times I've had in the city was when I had my camera with me and took random walks. Well, I did kind of plan them out, but mostly just the area I wanted to check out, not specific location.

Alexander McQueen-Savage Beauty at the Metropolitan was one of the highlights of my trip In June. Amazing Installation of the work of a Visionary Designer. Prepare to wait in line to see the exhibit, or get a Met Membership to bypass the line.
