To Baby or Not to Baby

Making the choice to have a kid is never easy. Making the choice to have a kid when you don’t know if the baby or the apocalypse will come first? Much harder. In the play Lungs, a couple are deciding whether to have a child, but they’re doing it in…

Geriatric Love

You’re never too old for love, as evidenced by the crazy-high STD rates among senior citizens (no joke; an AARP article confirmed it). In the play The Last Romance by the Tony Award-winning author of I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change, Joe DiPietro, two senior citizens meet in a…

Art from an Expert

The Girls Club of Fort Lauderdale is hosting a continuing event called Artists in Action and will feature successful artist Felice Grodin. There are three elements to Artists in Action that make it a great event for artistically inclined people. If you know the art world, then you know it…

Break Out the Wine and Cheese

If you consider yourself a Francophile (meaning you love all things French) or cinema lover, then you should get yourself to Cinema Paradiso’s Rendez-Vous With French Cinema. On Thursday at 8 p.m., you will have the chance to see Le magasin des suicides, or, in English, The Suicide Shop. With…

Words Set To Music

Expression through music is one of the oldest forms of art. Stories have been passed musically down through generations, all culminating in one of the best songwriters of all time: Bob Dylan. Dylan lived in a time when the great songwriters would meet in hip places in cities like Manhattan…

P versus V

Bear & Bird Boutique + Gallery will present “Girls vs. Boys,” an art show displaying one of the oldest rivalries of all time. No, it’s not Conan versus Leno, Katniss versus President Snow, or the Hollywood Foreign Press versus Ricky Gervais (although that is more of a love/hate relationship). This…

Mama Knows Best

If the kids on the Jersey Shore had a mama like the one in the production of Ask Mama at the Andrew Living Arts Studio, maybe they’d have been less likely to have become the poster children for guido nation. Sometimes you just need an older Italian mother to slap/feed/point…

Clap Those Jazz Hands

Chicago isn’t the only flapper-friendly musical out there. Thoroughly Modern Millie is the Broadway showstopper about a small-town girl looking to make it big in the Big Apple. And how else does a gal do that but through singing, dancing, and trying to find a rich man to marry? Thoroughly…

Drag Yourself to Bingo

When one thinks of bingo in South Florida, it would be easy to assume the average age in the room will be in octogenarian territory. Well, not at the Arts Garage. There’s bingo, and then there’s Drag Bingo. Complete with heels, glamour, and more glitter than a stripper pole, Drag…

From the Whitney to the Norton

Emily Fisher Landau is a badass philanthropist, and when she’s not off philanthroping, she has spent her time over the past five decades amassing an incredible collection of contemporary art. This includes paintings by Richard Prince, Susan Rothenberg, and some guy you may have heard of — Andy Warhol. But…

Sweet 13

The Arts Garage in downtown Delray is presenting 13: The Musical. And no, it’s not a frilly rendition of the movie Thirteen, which would make for a very depressing musical, not that people aren’t into those (*cough* Les Mis *cough*). This 13 is the story of a kid whose parents’…

Bring Your Sugar Daddy to “Sugar Babies”

Here in South Florida, we’re used to seeing sugar daddies parking their 1967 Chevys in more modern garages, if you know what I mean. There are even sugar mommas, who have ridden the cougar train all the way to happy town since Demi Moore made cougars cool by jumping Ashton…

Get KeroWACKED

On the Road may just be the movie people go see for Kristen Stewart’s boobs, but it’s based on one of the Beat Generation’s greatest novels. Who better encapsulated the feeling of being lost and found all at once than Jack Kerouac? Which is why the Boynton Beach Art District…

Beatles Rock Yoga

Fact: The Beatles make everything better. Also fact: The benefits of yoga go far beyond physical results including improving overall mood and mental health. When you put the two together, you get a winning combination that is sure to give you a “Ticket to Ride” on the inner peace train…

The French Are Coming

Florida Atlantic University is getting its French on. Not in the smelly cheese or snooty aristocrats kind of way but the French cinema kind of way. The department of languages, linguistics, and comparative literature in the Dorothy F. Schmidt College of Arts and Letters is presenting a monthlong French Film…

Seduce Your Sweetheart with Improv

Comedy in Boca is kind of a joke. The only place to see standup was the New York Comedy Club, and that was just moved to the Deerfield Country Club (peeling walls and slight musk included). Enter the Sick Puppies Comedy improv troupe, here to fill the comedic void. The…

Boynton Gets Retro

The annual Retro Indie Market returns to Boynton Beach this weekend. Indie craft markets are popping up all over the place because they are a great place to find unique… well, anything: records, jewelry, vintage purses, homemade skirts, cupcakes, brownies, household décor. If you can think of it, odds are…

Ethel Waters Lands in Delray Beach

The Delray Beach Playhouse is presenting Ethel Waters: His Eye Is on the Sparrow. This play documents the life of Broadway gem Ethel Waters. She was born into extreme poverty, her mother a victim of rape, yet she was able to accomplish things most people only dream about. It wasn’t…

24-Hour Play Madness

Making a play is a long and arduous process. Sure, there are fun parts but not nearly as much sleeping around as you’d think. Mostly, it’s just exhausting hours and sheer determination that get a play made. The task of crunching that down into a 24-hour period seems, well, impossible…

Sit Down And Watch

Stand Up Guys hits theaters this February and features an all-star cast that everyone’s dads are sure to love. Hell, most generations appreciate acting champs like Christopher Walken and Al Pacino, so why not see them as past-their-prime gangsters? Well, Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival (FLIFF) members can see this…

Steady Rollin’ with Bob Margolin

The Delray Beach Arts Garage is home to many different performers and styles of entertainment. On Saturday at 8 p.m., it welcomes Bob Margolin to its Garage Blues session. Margolin has been all over the blues scene, finding inspiration from Chuck Berry and even playing with Muddy Waters. If you’ve…
