Stuart Little Theatre Arlington	Every week Saturday, Sunday from Sat., November 7 until Sun., November 15, 2:00pm more dates/times	Arlington	Children's Theater Theater Theater - Small
My little sister was obsessed with Stuart Little when she herself was, you know, little. We watched the movie and the sequels over and over at the movie theater. She even had a copy of E.B. White's book about the second son in the Little family who "was no bigger than mouse"...and actually was... More >>

The Wonderful Sounds of Music with the Von Trapp Children, featuring the FWSO Bass Performance Hall	Sat., November 7, 8:00pm more dates/times	Fort Worth	Music Theater Theater - Large
We can't imagine what it's like for a child to have to live up to a famous (or infamous) surname such as Gotti, Trump, Brando or Astaire. Legacies like those come with a lot of baggage, but also a lot of opportunities--take, for instance, the singing siblings Sofia, Melanie, Amanda and Justin.... More >>

Sweeney Todd: the Demon Barber of Fleet Street Casa Manana Theatre	Tue., November 10, 7:30pm more dates/times	Fort Worth	Theater Theater - Large
Did someone say meat pies? Or was it priest pies? Mrs. Lovett is at it again, and this time it's not Helena Bonham Carter who's serving up the hot plates. We suspect the Tony award-winning musical play Sweeney Todd: the Demon Barber of Fleet Street will have you feeling just as squeamish as Tim... More >>

A Lie of the Mind Addison Conference and Theatre Center	Every week Sunday from Sun., November 1 until Sat., November 14, 2:00pm more dates/times	Addison	Theater Theater - Small
There's such a thing as unhealthy family dysfunction. And in Sam Shepard's A Lie of the Mind, dysfunction is so rampant, the family is beyond repair. The play takes place in the American West, where two families are brought together through the marriage of Jake and Beth. Beating his wife until... More >>

Snake In the Grass Theatre Three	Every week Sunday from Sun., October 25 until Sun., November 15, 2:30pm more dates/times	Downtown & Deep Ellum	Theater Theater - Small
Whenever my mother ticked me off when I was a kid, I would pantomime pulling an electrical cord from a wall socket. It was part of an ongoing family joke that I would eagerly pull the plug on her life-support system if she were hospitalized for so much as a broken toe. Yeah, my family has a... More >>

Tap Dogs Majestic Theatre	Fri., November 13, 8:00pm more dates/times	Downtown & Deep Ellum	Broadway: Now Playing Dance Theater Theater - Large
I took a tap-dance class in college, and every morning after class I would whirl around my dorm room, slapping the steel tips of my shoes against the brown linoleum. When the hall called a wing meeting about the "noise problem," they didn't mention the people who blared Britney Spears or the... More >>

Slasher McKinney Avenue Contemporary	Daily from Fri., November 13 until Sat., November 14, 8:00pm more dates/times	Uptown & Oak Lawn	Theater Theater - Small
The true beauty of the slasher film is the polarizing nature of the genre. People either have their tickets for every adolescent-studded, gore-driven flick that hits the theaters purchased a week in advance (despite incredibly bad reviews) or they sit through 15 minutes of the movie and begin...

Half Jewish, Half Very Jewish! Lakewood Theater	Sat., November 14, 8:30pm	East Dallas & Lakewood	Comedy Theater
There's more to Jewish humor than mother and matzo jokes. And comedian Elon Gold proves it. The modern Orthodox, yeshiva-educated Gold mixes religious and secular comedy to formulate a one-man shtick that is relatable even to those who think kippah is a fish. (It's actually another word for... More >>

Cesar Millan's PackPower Tour Nokia Theatre at Grand Prairie	Sun., November 15, 7:30pm	Grand Prairie	Pets Theater
How can you not love a guy who says he wants to make the world a better place one dog at a time? That's how Cesar Millan rolls. If you've never seen his NatGeo show, The Dog Whisperer, program your DVR stat. It's fascinating to watch Millan take aggressive and antisocial dogs and rehabilitate... More >>

Billy Crystal's 700 Sundays The Winspear Opera House	Tue., November 17, 8:00pm more dates/times	Downtown & Deep Ellum	Theater Theater - Large
There is a long, checkered history of "one-man shows" and "performance art" dating as far back as Hal Holbrook, Karen Finley and the Fluxus art movement. Probably even further. It seems that the latest celebrity to throw his old-ass hat into the arena is the one and only Billy Crystal. You most... More >>
