    Amaging!

    As program coordinator/“co-queerator” of aging-with-grace org Family Eldercare’s LGBTQ division Rainbow Connections ATX, World Famous *BOB* speaks about growing older so tenderly. An example: “I often say that hanging out with older people is like getting a postcard from your future, and who wouldn’t want to read that?” There’ll be “postcards” a-plenty at this three-show series, which features five older qmmunity members (between the ages of 65 and 91) sharing their stories onstage – with *BOB* in the director’s chair. To hear cast members Rev. Babs Miller, Glenna “Sparkle” Williams, Masha-Leah, Richard Rollin Gartner, and Anna Nguyen speak about their lives is to understand the incredible stories we’re all connected by. – James Scott

    Justice Is Served

    Bang the gavel, girlies, because court is in session, and you’re guilty – of being a slay queen! Just kidding, just kidding: I get ahead of myself here in Qmmunity headquarters (my bedroom/office). No, what’s in session for real is “thee” newest variety show/improvised play from queer art weirdos Thee Gay Agenda. Premiering this Thursday and running through Saturday is TGA’s Justice Is Served at CrashBox. Dress code is courtroom chic – your lapels ironed, heels sharp, and not a single hair out of order. - James Scott

    Queer Magic the Gathering Night

    Are you LGBTQ and a fan of Magic? Have you never picked up a card but your gay spirit yearns to build a deck? Do you reject the temptations of Yu-Gi-Oh! and its many big-haired idols? Then you may find yourself among friends at this weekly meetup of queer Magic: The Gathering players. Welcome are the dedicated, the lapsed, and the newbies these Thursday nights – even those sans cards can participate. Masks, however, are required, but they’ve got spares if you forget yours at home. – James Scott
    Thursdays, 7-10pm. Free but RSVP.

    Riot Fair

    I’ve analyzed the projections and looked at all the research: My conclusion is rock solid. Yes, I’ve concluded that this Thursday night on Fourth Street will be a riot … for Riot Fair, that is. Tear down the house with host Riot Girl, cast members Titty Androgynous & Venus Rising, and DJ Ruby Knight. Their drag spectacular will shock white streaks in your hair, spin your chair, and make you shout – as will the nice early start time of 8:30pm. Look, sometimes you need to riot responsibly on a school night! – James Scott
    Thursdays, 8pm. 18+, $10; 21+, free.
