CULTURE CLUB: Broaden your kids' cultural horizons at Lincoln Center Out of Doors' Family Day, that unceasing free-for-all. This year's lineup includes a colorful Puppet Pageant; a hip-hop arrogate on "The Sound of Music" (courtesy of Doug Elkins & Friends' "Fraulein Maria," above) and Step Afrika!, the nation's head prom troupe tender to "stepping." 2 to 8:30 p.m. Damrosch Park, 62nd Street between Columbus and Amsterdam avenues; 212-875-5766.
BRUSH UP YOUR BARD: Drama queens (and kings) ages 16 and up can get it to emote at a vacant Shakespeare workshop from 5 to 5:45 p.m. led by actors from the New York Classical Theatre, then with the troupe in George Bernard Shaw's "Misalliance" at 7 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays through Aug. 24, free; West 103rd Street and Central Park West, Central Park; 212-252-4531.
TOMORROW HEAR THEM ROAR: Or do they bark? We're not sure, but Prospect Park Zoo's "Samba With the Sea Lions" should be a properly clarion event, between performances by Brazilian drum whole Samba New York! and whatever family of trick the animals make. While you're there, use your "spidey" quickness to grade Discovery Trail's newest attraction: a 6-foot-wide trap made of mucilaginous rope. "Samba" runs twelve o'clock to 3 p.m., set free with entry ($6 for adults, $2 for kids).
Prospect Park, enter at 450 Flatbush Ave.; 718-399-7339. GOTHIC HERO: What's an spare slight rogue named Edgar Allen Densmore to do when he doesn't up in at Piedmont Private School? Throw moonlight parties with the decaying creatures in the stone garden on his school's rooftop, of course.
So it goes in "Gargoyle Garden, A New Musical," one of the few family-friendly offerings at this year's Fringe Festival. 2:30 p.m., also Wednesday at 8 p.m., $15. Bleecker Street Theatre, 45 Bleecker St., between Lafayette and Mott streets; ticketweb.com.
