    Rap Unzel

    In this new play by Jeremy Rashad Brown, Reginald “RAP” Unzel is a young man with big hair and bigger dreams of musical stardom – if only he can get out of his room. This is a hip-hop musical that disrupts traditional fairy tales, a celebration of identity, awareness, and empowerment that counters hyper-masculine and stoic representations of Black men in mainstream culture. Directed by Indiia Wilmott for Brown Boy Productions and the Vortex. Bonus: The weather's getting nicer lately, and this is an outside show.
    Through Oct. 31. Sat.-Sun., 1 & 3pm. $10 and up.

    Wonder of the World

    This is David Lindsay-Abaire’s comedy of one woman’s outrageous journey that plunges her deep into the unknown. "Nothing will prepare you for the dirty little secret Cass discovers in her husband’s sweater drawer." And just how do a blithely suicidal alcoholic, a lonely tour-boat captain, a pair of bungling, bickering private detectives, and a gargantuan jar of peanut butter fit into this heady mix? You'll have to witness this production from City Theatre and Beyond August to find out.
    Through Oct. 24. Thu.-Sat., 8pm; Sun., 3pm. $15-25.
