Weekend Outlook…

Haven’t made plans for Saturday night yet? Not to worry, we’ve compiled some of the best weekend events below!

Foggy Bottom fanfare:

  • Generic Theatre Company presents “SubUrbia,” an edgy comedy-drama about life in the ‘burbs, Saturday at 10 p.m. at the Lisner Downstage. Tickets are $5. Check out the preview in the Arts section this week.
  • The department of theatre and dance hosts the closing night of DanceWorks, a student showcase, at the Dorothy Betts Marvin Theatre Saturday at 7:30 p.m. Tickets are $15 for students.
  • Go watch nationally-ranked GW Raas compete against other dance teams from around the country: GW South Asian Society presents Raas Chaos Saturday at Lisner Auditorium at 7 p.m. Tickets are $20.

District must-dos:

  • If you have a soft spot for ’60s girl groups and classic soul, then head to the Black Cat Saturday for Party Lights, a free night of music and dancing.
  • Take in a movie during the American Film Institute’s annual Eurpean Union Film Showcase, held in Silver Spring. See the online schedule here.
  • Before heading to Gelman on Sunday, go over to Mount Vernon and watch former White House pastry chef Roland Meisner build a massive gingerbread replica of George Washington’s home. He’s been working on the masterpiece since Nov. 12, so he should be completing the final touches. The best part: it’s free.
