Something about this coming week just makes us feel relaxed. Maybe it’s because April 15 has come and gone, and there’s nothing left to do about our taxes until next year (or until we get audited, whichever comes first). Maybe it’s because all the stress in our lives has compounded…
You may think that there’s an appreciable difference in going to see a play at Actors Playhouse or GableStage and going to catch a ballgame at Marlins Park. But you’d be wrong. Mostly. A Miami Marlins game is every bit as much theatre as something written by Tracy Letts or…
Imagine if someone pointed their phone at your T-shirt and, all of a sudden, you were decked out in a Miami Heat jersey, shooting free throws with Dwayne and Lebron. Or perhaps, wielding a sword and slaying a fantastical beast in a Game of Thrones-esque battle.Wait. Can this kind of…
We love the gay community – and we mean love, in, like, a totally gay way. Yes, we know that a gay person is just like any other. But in reality, many gays know that they are simply a little more fabulous than the rest of the world. And that…
Beret-wearing foreign and indie-flick loving hipsters and cinephiles are going to have to find something new to complain about over their cigarettes and black coffee: Miami no longer has a shortage of cool venues in which to watch the obscure screen gems they love. In fact, we’ve got five –…
Let’s not kid ourselves – Miami certainly isn’t the greenest city going. We’ve got a few years of cultural catch-up to do before composting is a backyard habit, vegans are able to easily find food, and riding public transportation is a viable option.But hope lives, and do-gooders are forging ahead…
Art Walk is back in Wynwood, bringing with it even more signs that Miami is soaring as a cultural destination. Last month’s edition was, admittedly, a dud. But this Saturday, starting at 6 p.m., culture-seekers can browse a galaxy of new shows, ranging from a Parisian shutterbug’s photos of famous…
Holy bananas, it’s Friday y’all!What a crazy week it was. First we all had the painstaking task of recovering from our Passover and Easter hangovers. What, are you saying you didn’t get shit-faced? Then, we had to deal with Tuesday through Thursday, which is always a certified drag.Speaking of drag,…
Last night, Democratic strategist Hilary Rosen went on TV and said that Mitt Romney’s wife, Ann, who is a stay-at-home mother, had “never worked a day in her life.” And just like that, we’ve all been sucked back into the same discussion about motherhood we’ve been having since feminists started…
Yeah, yeah, we know you’re too sexy for your shirt, you luscious lubed-up gay man. In fact, you’re so sexy you and your friends have commandeered South Beach and made it a super gay-man hotspot. Meanwhile, the gay ladies of Miami find themselves driving for endless hours (okay, maybe less)…
We love Wynwood’s Second Saturday Art Walk for all the important reasons: free booze, killer visual installations, bizarre conversations with socially awkward artists. And now there’s yet another reason to get psyched for our favorite artistic endeavor: this weekend’s stroll is offering an earful of aria to help pump up…
This Friday the 13th, Miami’s in for one seriously scary event — and not just because of the date. O Cinema is hosting the East Coast premiere of The Burning Moon, Olaf Ittenbach’s classic of gore-fest horror films, all complemented by a spook-tastic lineup of performances and events.This free event…
Like a 6-year-old dropping an f-bomb, the things that come out of Nikki Glaser’s mouth are pretty shocking. The bits in her repertoire touch on some pretty sensitive topics — rape, for example. And in a YouTube video titled “Lady Comic Slumber Party” featuring Glaser, Amy Schumer, Rachel Feinstein, and…
Jobs are like penises: everybody has them, except for women, who have vaginas and jobs. Then there’s also hermaphrodites, who (we assume) don’t hold two jobs. Or maybe some do, because it’s a tough economy out there, plus they have to deal with the whole double genitals thing. The physiology…
At first glance, competitive underwater leg wrestling seems, well, like a joke. Or a glorified game of footsie played in the pool. Or just a really effective way of getting kicked in the balls.But Christopher Meadows, who invented underwater leg wrestling while swimming with his son one day in the…
A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum at the Ring Theatre through April 15
Moscow at the Arsht Center Through April 15
Property Line at the South Miami-Dade Cultural Arts Center Through April 15
Wynwood Art Walk Preview: Robert Fontaine Opens a New Joint
If you could host a dinner party with any five historical or mythical figures, who would it be? If you’re Marlene, the central character in Caryl Churchill’s modern-classic feminist play Top Girls, the choice is simple: a legendary pope, the subject of a Brueghel painting, a 13th-century Japanese concubine, a…

Oh, yeah. Right around the time you get off work this weekend, Venezuelan disco funk is headed for downtown Miami. Or make that DWNTWN, as the folks at the Miami Downtown Development Authority would have it. If stripping the vowels out of the word weren’t enough to prove how cool…
