We’ve got the scoop on a lottery that actually has odds of paying off big. Starting today and each performance day, prime orchestra seats to the Dallas engagement of WICKED will be sold for just $25. The only catch is that you must show up two-and-a-half hours prior to the performance and put your name into a lottery drum. If […]
Quick, find a friend with TV Guide Network, one of the few remaining places to catch reruns of Designing Women. Other than a dusty VHS collection in Paul J. Williams’ basement. It’ll all be worth the extra homework prior to catching the latest drag comedy from Uptown Players, Re-Designing Women. Once again, an all-male cast turns a popular women-centric sitcom […]
After college, Spring Break for most of us is just another name for “Week We Have to Work While Others Have Fun.” But this year, we’re going to make some new Spring Break memories that have nothing to do with beer bongs, cheap Mexican motel rooms or bikini-clad women trying quite unsuccessfully to get into our pants. It all happens […]

Telling someone how you feel about them can be difficult. Even those of us who make a living with words often clam up when it comes time to expressing emotions verbally. (We prefer, instead, to bang our head with our fists and scream toward the sky. Kind of achieves the same goal as an actual conversation.) But there’s a […]
Love the one you’re with or sleep around and have a helluva lot more fun. We read that in a fortune cookie once. Or maybe it was a bumper sticker at a swinger’s convention. Hard to recall. Regardless, stories of “Playing the Field” are sometimes titillating, often hilarious and always entertaining. And that’s just what you’ll hear at tomorrow’s Valentine’s […]
Great love stories aren’t just for Divorce Court any more. Sometimes romance actually does conquer all. So if you’re seeking reassurance of this strange phenomenon, check out the French comedy The Triumph of Love at Stone Cottage Theatre just in time for Valentine’s Day. In this three-act play about a cross-dressing princess (sold!), it seems just about everyone is pretending […]
True confessions: We hate The Wizard of Oz. There, we’ve finally put it out in the universe. No more pretending to care about Wicked, no more clicking our heels together three times to feel like a part of a community, and no more courtesy laughs for queens who love to end sentences with “…and your little dog, too!” Wow, we […]
Listening to the late, great Julia Child as she described exquisite French cooking techniques on her television show was almost like listening to beautiful music. Her voice was so melodic and entertaining, it’s no stretch to imagine this larger-than-life personality belting out notes that only an opera singer could achieve.

They stare at each other with steely gazes, hearts racing as they anticipate their opponents’ next moves.
