Must Do: Events & Culture

John Cameron Mitchell Takes His Wig Down From The Shelf

Big plans on August 7? We know, we know. Your National Lighthouse Day plans often book up years in advance. But if you happen to still have that Friday night free, you’ve gotta block off your calendar for the Hedwig and the Angry Inch 25th Anniversary Movie Tour at the Texas Theatre in Oak Cliff. Not only will you get […]

All That Glitters Is Not Necessarily Mariah

When a group of gay men gets together, expect plenty of drama. But even more laughter. The Texas premiere of Pure Glitter from Uptown Players at the Kalita Humphreys Theater promises that and more. Written by two-time Emmy-nominated playwright Douglas Lyons, Pure Glitter focuses on a group of friends gather for a 10th anniversary surprise party that brings out all […]

Good Mañana, Baltimore!

Even mainstream John Waters beats 95% of “edgy” movies. As much as we love the filth of Pink Flamingos, Multiple Maniacs and Desperate Living, we adore Hairspray in all its incarnations. From the 1988 original starring Ricki Lake and Divine to the 2002 Broadway musical version of the movie to the 2007 movie version of the Broadway musical, they each […]

Horny For Sigourney?

Drag queens. Aliens. Kitty cats. What else do you need for a fun time on a Friday night? The always irreverent and insanely talented May May Graves (above) brings another classic film to Oak Cliff following a live drag show and dancers. On the screen this time, it’s the iconic 1979 outer space horror flick, Alien, starring Sigourney Weaver, presented […]

Town Hall, But Make It Fun

Everybody loves Liz Mikel. Especially the gays! She graced the stage for years in shows at Uptown Players and Dallas Theater Center, and even made a name for herself on Broadway and television. Tonight, she’s back at the Kalita Humphreys Theater with DTC in Where We Stand, a one-woman show produced in association with Fort Worth’s Stage West Theatre. What’s […]

Taste The Rainbow, Lick The Rainbow, Get A Sugar Rush From The Rainbow

You had us at Willy, Mr. Wonka. It’s time for a sugar-coated celebration with Legacy Cares for their upcoming Candy Land fundraiser on April 25. We know, it’s early to start thinking about a party more than two months away, but if you want to snag early-bird pricing on this colorful evening, you have until February 28 to save a […]

Weddings 101: From Aisle To Isle

Did somebody pop the big question this past weekend? And not, “Can we open up our relationship?” The other big question. If you’re engaged, thinking about getting engaged, wish to renew your vows, or simply spy from the corners on loving couples to see what makes them click, this weekend’s 2025 LGBTQ+ Wedding Expo has your name written all over […]

Cowboys & Crawdaddies

The end of Carnival season draws nigh. Sigh. The weeks leading up to Mardi Gras always rank high on our list. As if we ever need an excuse to be crazy and embrace new levels of debauchery. Well, it all comes to an end tomorrow for those of you who give up something for Lent. We’ll watch from the sidelines […]

Silky Nutmeg Ganache Brings The B-Day Wishes

Most of us never get big-name guest stars at our birthday parties. Not Tasha Kohl. Every year she has a big blowout party they everyone’s invited to (for $30.87!) This year, Tasha Kohl’s ICON The Show: Birthday Bash 2026, Drag Race fan fave Silky Nutmeg Ganache joins the lineup. Our own legendary Cassie Nova returns as host, with performances by […]

Be The Life Of The Mardi

This Saturday night, you have your choice of two holidays to celebrate. Both Valentine’s Day and Mardi Gras take center stage, so choose to participate in one or both! We’re more Team Mardi Gras personally. So, skip the waxy chocolate covered strawberries and overpriced roses from the Kroger parking lot and opt instead to commemorate Fat Tuesday a few days […]
