"Extended after a sold-out run, this dog show about people created by Michael Zimmer and Sofia Sullivan explores the most laugh-out-loud hilarious aspects of man's besties and the sometimes outrageous lengths we go to for our furry friends. A portion of ticket sales will be donated to local nonprofit One Tail at a Time (the folks behind the foster-based pup rescue have a pretty playful sense of humor themselves). BB (Kickstand Comedy, Ladd's Addition, $15)"
"In this 1995 classic road trip buddy comedy with a campy twist, a trio of Manhattan drag queens hit the road cross-country to compete in the prestigious Drag Queen of the Year pageant in Los Angeles. Calamity ensues and said queens, played by Wesley Snipes, Patrick Swayze, and John Leguizamo, end up stranded in podunk nowhere with only their charisma and kitten heels to defend them."
