I Don't Give a Flying Karamazov

I've seen street performers before. Some of them are pretty cool. Like, Really Old White Dude Who Does The Robot To No Music, and I Painted Myself Gold And I Will Not Do Even One Trick Guy, and Uncle No Pants. My favorite is Girl In A Short Skirt And...

I've seen street performers before. Some of them are pretty cool. Like, Really Old White Dude Who Does The Robot To No Music, and I Painted Myself Gold And I Will Not Do Even One Trick Guy, and Uncle No Pants. My favorite is Girl In A Short Skirt And Ripped Up Pantyhose. I like when she turns out to be a dude and people get arrested. Oh—and, of course, The Flying Karamazov Brothers. They juggle. And in their latest show, Life: A Guide for the Perplexed, they give you tips on how to survive in the modern world. I'm guessing they'll suggest that we become jugglers and charge people lots of money to come see our show where we're probably only kind of funny. But, hey—if you heart "kind of funny", 8 p.m. this Saturday, see The Flying Karamazov Brothers perform as part of the Eisemann Center Presents' Hill Performance Hall Spotlight Series at the Charles W. Eisemann Center at 2351 Performance Drive in Richardson. Tickets will cost you $20 to $50. Call 972-744-4650 or visit eisemanncenter.com.
Sat., March 31, 8 p.m.

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.
