The Tempest
8 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday

On a desolate stretch of Route 66, magic meets drag in this electric reimagining of Shakespeare’s tale. Prospero, exiled Duke of Milan, summons her final revenge against the people who stole everything—aided by the faery Ariel and twelve years of simmering fury. Through glitter and sorcery, this production wrestles with family, born and found, and whether redemption is ever truly earned. Head over to the Lynn Riggs Black Box Theatre to see this production, which is rated 13+ for suggestive content.

It’ll be a fun-filled evening of popsicles, tie-dye, and chalk at Broken Arrow’s Nienhuis Park Community Center. Bring whatever you’d like to tie-dye, and they’ll provide the dye, chalk and popsicles.
