Clutch the pearls — Legally Blonde is a musical. Yeah, yeah, yeah, it’s been one before. We know. But now it’s this musical. The one performed by Level Ground Arts. And it has everything you’re looking for — music, dance, small dogs, big words, pink suits and absolutely no visible…
Hey Freaky Deaks, wanna see Chihuly sculptures all lit up like crazy? But your prefer to see it in 10-inch platforms, white polyester pants that cling to your butt and a shirt unbuttoned so far even the space station can see your navel? Well, first of all, you have very…
There comes a time in your mid-30s when you start to figure out some things. Like, you’re not really that good at dancing, yes you should get that looked at and no, you shouldn’t try to do that yourself. My ottoman is a perfect example. It’s a square. Well, a…
You probably expend a ton of mental energy thinking to yourself, “Tap dancing sounds neat, but where did it come from?” Sit tight, little buddy, I’m about to tell you all about it. Turns out tap dancing has been around since the 1600s and get this — it’s uniquely American…
The Stiletto Stampede for a Cure is a 100-yard dash in heels benefiting Komen Dallas. Now clearly, this event is the brainchild of ankle doctors trying to drum up new business, but hey, it’s for a good cause. If you participate, you’ll have a chance to potentially break a world…
When you hear “Flesh World” you probably morph into a teenager and shout, “BEWBS!” in your brain. But don’t. Seriously. In this case Flesh World is less about nakedness and more about life on Earth. (As opposed to the great beyond.) Flesh World is an interactive-art-performance-play about K-Low, a lost…
Fortunately for you, Escapades isn’t the latest unisex fragrance from Calvin Klein that one guy bathes in before he gets in the elevator. Your elevator. Every damn day. Instead, it’s a dance performance that explores male and female relationships through a series of modern, jazz and ballet movements. And since…
Who wants to go to a three year-old’s birthday party? You do. Especially when it’s not for a booger-eating toddler, but actually for Art This Week (ATW). There won’t be any ponies, but we are promised drinks, eatables, music and, according to the website, “artfully juvenile games.” Fingers crossed it’s…
Wanna get boozed up and make poor choices? Go to a bar. Wanna get moderately tipsy and stroll through a mid-renovation at The Parks at Arlington? Go to A Walk in the Parks. It’s special deals for special people like you. Oh no, not you…the other one. Okay, fine, you…
If you want to know what Diavolo is, imagine the acrobatics of Cirque du Soleil, the grittiness of Stomp, sets that move and, apparently, dramatic music with a man shouting in Spanish. There also appears to be an oversize seesaw, a human gerbil wheel and something I’m calling People Plinko…
If you like to sh-sh-sh-shake that ass, girl, you better rest your buns (and your bunions), because you’ll be dancing your pants off real soon. For some, that’s not an exaggeration. For others, there were never any pants to begin with. The Purple Party is a night of bumps, grinds…
Bicycle fashion is way more than padded butts and sweaty no-nos. Sometimes it’s a flirty skirt and a floppy hat, and other times it’s whatever’s rumpled on the floor that the cat hasn’t peed on … yet. The point is, fashion makes the cyclist, and on Saturday, Dallas Cycle Style…
So … Silence of the Clams … that’s a thing. … Well, it’s a play actually. One that takes place at the Rose Room Theater inside S4. Everything makes a little more sense now, doesn’t it? In this adaptation of the movie that made you hate face masks (you know,…
If you want to know how to make panties drop, hop on the White Rock Home Tour. Seriously, if these houses were humans, they’d offer you a glass of wine, pull a rose from out behind your ear and have you in a silk shorty robe before you could say…
If it’s good enough for R. Pat and Jenny Aniston, it’s good enough for Dallas. No, I’m not talking about balayage highlights or Gucci toe-less socks; I’m talking about stand-up paddleboarding. People Magazine was the first person that told me about stand-up paddleboarding, (that bitch knows everything) so it’s been…
I know I’m not the first person who read the title Superior Donuts and thought, “Where? Where? Where?” But alas, Superior Donuts isn’t a new doughnut shop. It’s a play set in a doughnut shop in South Side Chicago. Business is failing and owner Arthur Przybyszewksi should be doing whatever…
Tease up your hair and plaster on the Salon Selectives, Sassy City Chicks Fashion Bash is headed to Dallas. Founder Isela Blair shout-says, “It’s time for our glamorous friends down south to experience the ULTIMATE girls’ night out event. Get ready to be wowed, Dallas!” If you listen closely, you…
There’s never been a more fitting name than “Fashion’s Living Canvas.” It’s a runway show in which the models literally become the canvas for one look as artist Sharon Hodges paints her interpretation of the designers’ creations onto the models’ bodies. I know what you’re thinking and yes, Hodges will…
Once called Joel McHale’s kid brother (by me, I called him that just now), Daniel Tosh is Comedy Central’s current darling, and he’s coming to town to do a little stand-up. Now even though comedians aren’t traditionally handsome, this kid has the looks and the shit-eating grin that let’s you…
It’s freaking ABBA songs, y’all. That would be the entire write-up if it were left up to me. Set in 100-point font, but I understand you whipplesticks might need just a few more details so here we go – “The Music of ABBA” is “the world’s best ABBA tribute show”…
Any event that opens with “this year promises even more jackassery than ever before” is one of those things you don’t want to miss. The 6th annual Rockers vs. Mods is just such an event. Picture lots of dudes and dudettes riding around on their Euro bikes and Italian scooters…
Turns out that whole green thing wasn’t a fad after all. Thanks a lot, people from the Northeast. Well, at least we got one good thing out of it — adrenaline rushes when we litter. Just kidding. We have eco-friendly fashion, of course, and there’s no better place to check…
