Colonel Mustard In The Arts District With A Drag Queen

For six hours this Friday night, the Dallas Arts District will be hella damn queer. It’s time once again for the annual PRIDE Block Party, an indoor-outdoor collaboration between the Dallas Museum of Art, Nasher Sculpture Center and the Crow Museum of Asian Art. From 6:00 p.m. to midnight, enjoy a multitude of free activities, with featured performances including Uptown […]

Death Becomes Them

It’s never too late to try something new. That’s the behind-the-scenes message from the upcoming world premiere comedy, Momma Won’t Die. Patty Pell, now 81, attended a writing workshop led by Del Shores (Sordid Lives, Southern Baptist Sissies) with an idea. He quickly told her the story of a 108-year-old matriarch refusing to leave this earthly realm was an excellent […]

Sashay To Shea Couleé

Daylight + Drag = Delightful! Maybe not for the performers who have to wake up several hours earlier than normal. But we can totally get behind an afternoon drag show that goes until dark. This Saturday, RuPaul’s Drag Race star Shea Couleé marches into the Round-Up Saloon & Dance Hall to headline Strut Dallas, which also marks the first weekend […]

They Dance Like Everybody’s Watching

Who doesn’t love a good bonus? Not simply because it sounds like “Bone Us!” and gives us the giggles. And a bone, come to think of it. TOGETHER celebrates Pride Month with modern dance and live vocals for a joyous couple of hours of community and chosen family. Anyway, on Saturday, June 20 and Sunday, June 21, Uptown Players joins […]

Don’t Be Shy, Boy. Head To This Dallas Pride After-Party!

Listen up! After the first-ever Dallas Pride Sunset Parade on Main, there’s no reason to stop the party. Especially when Shyboy HIFI hosts as Dallas Pride Sunset Parade Afterparty starring iconic, gay, house music legend Derrick Carter. From 8:00 p.m. to late, immerse yourself in music at Dallas’s first-ever hi-fi listening bar, mere steps from the parade route. Carter will […]

Perty In Pink For Pride

It sure got hot fast in Dallas. This week’s been a scorcher, sending us flailing naked into the nearest pool at any opportunity. Though nudity won’t be allowed (sigh), the coolest pool party in town takes place tomorrow night at Lee Harvey’s Dive In. It’s the Summer House Pride Edition party, hosted by Liquor Mini (pictured) with performances by Bleach […]

Love Cheyenne Jackson & Balls? Then You’re In Luck!

Ready for next weekend’s first-ever sunset Pride parade through downtown Dallas? We personally can’t wait to be part of the historic event on Saturday. Of course, the weekend will be packed with other Pridetastic options, from celebrity-filled fundraisers to LGBTQ+ variety shows. This story focused on the former: MetroBall 19. Every year, the event raises the bar while raising funds […]

It’s Gettin’ Live Up In Here

Whether you’ve lived in Dallas a week or 20 years, chances are high you’ve scooted around the dance floor at the Round-Up Saloon & Dance Hall. Usually, it’s to beats courtesy of a DJ and not live bands. But that all changes this weekend as the Round-Up kicks off its new live-music series with performances by Dezi 5 (pictured above) […]
