aTrek Dance Collective's Choreography & Cocktails Centene Center for Arts & Education	Daily from Thu., April 17 until Sun., April 20	St. Louis - Grand Center	See/Be Seen, Drink Me, Dance
If you define "choreography" very loosely, the somewhat-nocuous combination of dance and drink that occurs every weekend in nightclubs across the land could perhaps count as such. Yet all of that off-balance bumping and grinding pales in comparison to what will go down this weekend at the Centene Center... More>>

The Comic Book Killer! Lemp Mansion Restaurant & Inn	Every week Friday, Saturday from Fri., January 11 until Sat., April 26	St. Louis - Soulard/Benton Park	Dinner Theater
There's a mystery afoot in the Soulard area, and it ain't the case of Who Stole the Mardi Gras Beads? — that would be disastrous this time of year! But the unsolved crime of The Comic Book Killer! is just as important. You see, the Evil Doctor Weevil has decided he wants to obliterate both the... More>>

After being hunted into extinction by the caveman 65,000,000 year ago (just go with it), dinosaurs have existed only through their fossilized remains and our imaginations.

Italian Film Festival Washington University-Brown Hall	Every week Friday, Saturday from Fri., April 4 until Sat., April 19	University City	Film & Video
Now in its fourth year, the Italian Film Festival celebrates Italian-made movies (duh) that illustrate the unique nature of modern Italian life: Passionate, neurotic, charming and unpredictable, much like a Roberto Benigni Oscar acceptance speech. The festival begins at 8 p.m. on Friday, April 4, at Brown... More>>

Mary's Wedding Third Baptist Church	Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., April 4 until Sun., April 20	St. Louis - Grand Center	Theater
Think back to your first love. Man, it was intense, wasn’t it? A little silly and trite at times perhaps, but those feelings were powerful, if not eternal.

Project Improv St. Louis: Super-Form Improv Tower Grove Abbey	Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Thu., April 17 until Sat., April 26	St. Louis - Midtown	Theater
Quick, someone shout out a place (“Intercourse, Pennsylvania!”). Now, a type of car (“Chevy Nova!”). Finally, a condiment (“French’s Yellow Mustard!”). Now, try and tie those all together in a hilarious, no-holds-barred improv sketch. Harder then it sounds, right? Well,... More>>

Last year’s Munny Show at Star Clipper Comics (6392 Delmar Boulevard, University City; 314-725-9110) was a crowd-spilling-into-the-streets, DJ-shaking-the-walls affair that would be hard to top — except that this year’s Munny Show is also Star Clipper’s 20th anniversary party. So, yeah:... More>>

Theatre Guild of Webster Groves: At This Evening's Performance Theatre Guild of Webster Groves	Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., April 18 until Sun., April 27	Webster Groves	Theater
Something is amiss at the Theatre Guild of Webster Groves' latest production. Rumors of a conspiracy swirl the corridors. Even the play's title, At This Evening's Performance — a mere prepositional phrase — gives way to suspense and general fill-in-the-blank forebodingness. The... More>>

Young Artists Showcase St. Louis Artists' Guild	Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sun., March 16 until Sat., May 3	Clayton	Art Exhibits
There's always hand-wringing over the loss of the arts in our school systems, but consider this: If you're a high schooler who dreams of a career in medicine, do you have an outlet for your passion now?
