Review: YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO SIT IN Is a Dream of a Production at Stages Theatre

The story goes that Stages staff member, Eboni Bell Darcy, was part of the discussion for the theater's reopening season. Ideas evidently floated around in the zoom call. It was Eboni's idea for Stages to commission their own jukebox musical. This excellent idea led to the creation of ShaWanna Renee Rivon's YOU ARE CORDIALLY INVITED TO SIT IN. One would think that a musical highlighting Houston's generational social justice problems would be what some call a 'downer.' Instead, Rivon's creation has become, at least for me, the crowning achievement of the 21-22 Houston theater season.

Things To Do: Eldorado Nights In February

A building is more than its structure; it houses the stories and vibrations of its past dwellers and they should be celebrated and preserved. Every Saturday in the month of February visual arts installation Eldorado Nights will celebrate Houston s famed Eldorado Ballroom. The historic ballroomwas once the city’s premier music venue for jazz and blues music bringing in national acts like B.B. King and Ray Charles and also serving as an important venue for local musicians. Built in 1939 in Houston’s Third Ward neighborhood, Eldorado was owned and operated by African-American businesswoman Anna Dupree and her husband Clarence Dupree. It maintained in operation as “Home of Happy Feet’” until 1970 and in 1999 it was gifted to Project Row Houses who reopened the venue for events in 1999.
