Dallas Theater Center is adding a little something to this month's sales contest. As you all know, first prize is a Cadillac Eldorado. Anybody want to see second prize? At 7:30 p.m. Thursday, the Dallas Theater Center is presenting David Mamet's Glengarry Glenn Ross at the Kalita Humphreys Theater, 3636 Turtle Creek Blvd. You know what those seats cost? $25. Or $48 for the premium seats. Can't see it Thursday? Tell your wife your troubles. 'Cause only one thing counts in this world: getting to see the play which is showing. When you die you're going to regret the things you don't do. You think you're busy? I'm going to tell you something: we're all busy. You think you're a thief? So what? You get befuddled by a middle-class morality? Get shut of it. Shut it out. You cheat on your wife? You did it, live with it. You want to know what it takes to see this show? It takes brass balls to see this show. But, if you can't make it Thursday because you're weak, the play runs until October 28 with shows starting at 7:30 p.m. Tuesdays through Thursdays, 8 p.m. Fridays,8 p.m. and 2 p.m. Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays. Call 214-522-8499 or visit dallastheatercenter.org. Third prize is you're fired.
Tuesdays-Thursdays, 7:30 p.m.; Fridays, 8 p.m.; Saturdays, 2 & 8 p.m.; Sundays, 2 p.m. Starts: Oct. 18. Continues through Oct. 28, 2007

Alice Laussade writes about food, kids, music, and anything else she finds to be completely ridiculous. She created and hosts the Dallas event, Meat Fight, which is a barbecue competition and fundraiser that benefits the National MS Society. Last year, the event raised $100,000 for people living with MS, and 750 people could be seen shoving sausage links into their faces. And one time, she won a James Beard Award for Humor in Writing. That was pretty cool.
