The Animal Rescue Fund of the Hamptons will continue its tradition of opening up the South Fork high season with a benefit cocktail party and sale Saturday at its Thrift and Treasure Shop in Sagaponack.

It’s fitting that Guild Hall will kick off a summer full of music, plays, and comedy with “Call Her Barbra!” and a free workshop production of “Ball of Redemption,” a new dark family comedy by the actress Ellen Dolan.

This summer Bay Street Theater will mount three world premiere plays, beginning Tuesday with previews for "The Prompter."

As of mid-late May, this is the scoop on the new, newer, and newest restaurants on the South Fork.
