Must Do: Events & Culture

He’s Cumming! He’s Cumming!

If we were tasked with naming the most iconic Broadway actors of our generation, Alan Cumming would easily be in our top five. In recent years, he’s become known to whole new audiences through his television roles. And he’s released several songs, including several “sappy” ones. So if you’re not already familiar with the multi-talented bisexual man, it should be […]

Hey, Grrrrrr, Hey! Today Is Your Last Chance…

We’re almost halfway through “the Twenties” of the 21st century and we sometimes wonder what this decade will be known as when people look back upon it. But one decade we do know the nickname for? The Roaring ’20s. Ah, those were the days! Prohibition, mob wives and decadent behavior galore. So we’re extra-excited about this year’s Texas Bear Round […]

And The Oscar Goes To… (Not Her)

Sunday night, the red carpet will be crawling with Hollywood’s A-listers at the 96th annual Academy Awards. Meanwhile, the red carpet at JR’s Bar & Grill will be (likely covered in popcorn) and graced with Dallas’ A-#1 drag queen, Cassie Nova. She’ll be hosting an Oscars Watch Party as we gather around to find out whether Bradley Cooper will win […]

High Drama In The Dallas Arts District

France! Italy! Greece! Not only does that sound like an ideal itinerary for a gay cruise, it’s also a trio of countries that figure into the next production from Uptown Players. The regional premiere of Tony Award-winning dramatist Terrence McNally’s Fire and Air debuts on Thursday, March 7 in a different-than-usual venue. For 10 shows, the 6th Floor Studio Theatre […]

Be A Queeny King For A Day (Or Two)

Start practicing your curtsies now. House of DIFFA: Royalty Untamed returns on Saturday, April 27. But you can get a taste of screaming, “Let them eat cake!” a few weeks early at the Patron Preview Party. The event takes place in the shadow of the glorious Eye at the Joule sculpture in downtown Dallas on Wednesday, March 20 from 6:00 […]

Flamboyantly Leap Into These February 29 Events

February 29 comes but once every four years. (Much like some practically celibate guys we know.) It’s one day a year that’s extra special, particularly for those born on the rare February 29. But we all get that 366th day this year and we’re going to make the most of it with several Leap Day events around the city. Check […]

Prep For The Paparazzi

The first major social event of the spring season has arrived. Well, almost. It has to be spring officially before that can be proclaimed, right? On Saturday, April 6, Toast to Life returns as the preeminent fundraiser for Resource Center. This year’s theme, On the Red Carpet, promises all the glitz and glamour of a Hollywood premiere or awards show. […]

Qweirdos Unite: It’s Halloween In February!

Be honest, is there a holiday scarier than Valentine’s Day? At least if you want to grab a decent meal at a restaurant without people groping each other at the table while exchanging chocolate-covered strawberries from Kroger. Well, now that all that manufactured romance nonsense has come and gone, we can prepare for Halloween. No, not actual Halloween, but May […]

Hot Enough For Ya?

After being teased with spring-like temperatures, this weekend promises another wintry cold snap.  Mother Nature can be a real buzzkill sometimes. So, anytime the thermometer reading shows anything below 50 degrees, our thoughts turn to hot things we wanna eat with a spoon.  (And to be clear, we do not mean our favorite trainer at Equinox). We’re talking soups and […]

Hey There, S.L.U.T.S.!

Naughty acronyms make us so happy. From RuPaul’s Drag Race‘s iconic C.U.N.T. (Charisma, Uniqueness, Nerve and Talent) to the more PG-rated P.I.T.A. (Pain In The Ass), any shortened terhm that’s either blatantly dirty or a little more subtle brings so much joy. So, when we found out this weekend about tonight’s Embracing S.L.U.T.S. event, we decided to put our regular […]
