DUSK: IMPROVISED TWEEN EROTICA
Gnap! Theatre Projects introduces its send-up of the ridiculously popular Twilight vampire series. Every Friday and Saturday night, the (eternally) youthful fangs 'n' angst soap opera plays out in full unscripted hilarity as you watch the brows furrow, the eyes beseech, the libidos flare, and yet, somehow, the various hymens remain as unbroken as the giant cross at the end of Hammer Studios' Dracula Has Risen From The Grave. Recommended. Through Nov. 21. Fri.-Sat., 8pm.
Salvage Vanguard Theater, 2803 Manor Rd, 474-7886.
$10.

ESTHER'S FOLLIES
The most popular troupe in town lampoons the political antics and celebrity shenanigans of the day with musical comedy and sketches that'll put you in stitches regardless of the state of national healthcare.

Reservations highly recommended. Thu., 8pm; Fri.-Sat., 8 & 10pm. $20 (discounts available Thursdays & Fridays for seniors, students, military). Additional $5 for special reserved seats.
Esther's Pool, 525 E. Sixth, 320-0553.
