Tonight and Saturday, October 3: Dance, Dance, Dance, Dance, Dance. Dance if you want to, but it’s way more fun to pay $15 to watch some of the best do it. [Velocity DC Dance Festival] MORE »

Tonight through Saturday, August, 1: If you’ve ever wanted to pretend you were Christopher Walken, or contemplate good versus evil using only pantomime, or if you just like watching people attempt to be funny on the spot (and then laugh at them when they don’t succeed), go to the Improvapalooza at the Source theater this weekend — 85 shows and 16 hours of comedic genius (hopefully) for just $10 a day.

It’s here! Well, OMFG the second installment of Screen on the Green is coming up on Monday, July 27. The first one may have almost been rained out, but we CAN’T WAIT to see the next film, Dog Day Afternoon, on Monday. What’s it about? Is it any good? Who cares! [This is a very well-known Oscar-winning movie, ARIELLE. -- Ed.] This is about our RIGHT to watch old movies on the Mall that we would otherwise never ever even think about watching.

Tonight through early August: If you’re a fan of musical theater, inappropriate sexual innuendos, failed pop icons, or ’80s hits, and you just LOVE when underdogs triumph over adversity, you should catch Spring Awakening or The Color Purple at the Kennedy Center.  Both shows have won numerous Tony awards, so regardless of your feelings toward musical bildungsromans or American Idol, they’re worth checking out.
