Entertainment Options for Friday
Option 1: See Hairspray at CWRUFilm. 7, 9:30, midnight. "It's 1962 and when the chance to dance on the Corny Collins show arrives, Tracy Turnblad jumps at the opportunity. Not only does her dancing attract Corny Collins, but also teenage heart throb, Link Larkin. But not everyone is happy with having her on the show. The show's manager, Velma von Tussle, will do anything to get Tracy off." $3/ticket.
Option 2: See Sukiyaki Western Django at the Cinematheque. 7:30pm. Also available Sunday night at 8:45pm. "Quentin Tarantino has a memorable cameo in this tasty concoction by still-crazy Takashi Miike-a cinematic stir-fry in which the ingredients are clichés from countless samurai movies and spaghetti Westerns. Set in a Western town populated by Japanese who speak phonetic English, the movie tells of two warring, color-coated clans whose centuries-old blood feud enters a new phase when a mysterious gunslinger rides into town and both factions woo him in Yojimbo/Fistful-of-Dollars fashion." $5/ticket for members. $8/ticket non-members. Memberships are currently discounted to $20.
Option 3: See Margaret Cho at Lakewood Civic Auditorium. 8pm. $30/ticket.
Option 3 may be out of reach financially. Could see doing both 1 & 2.
EDIT: Hairspray on Friday, SWD on Sunday.
