It’s one thing to have eclectic entertainment, but New World presents music, comedy and theatrical cabarets and sometimes even puppets(!) with a community-minded approach and intuitive grasp of its discerning audience. Along with the latest indie band from Brooklyn, you can attend a local or national standup show, cabaret shows, spoken word and political entertainment, or just hang out with patrons enjoying the numerous beers on tap and quality grub. Thanks to New World and its in-house curators for bringing us the specialness with sass. 1313 E. Eighth Ave., Ybor City, 813-248-4969.
