Debbie Benton is the all-American girl next door who wants to take her cheerleading career to the next level by joining the famous Texas Cowgirls cheer squad. When she's accepted for the tryouts, Debbie has only a week to raise the money to get down to Texas for her audition. Debbie's girlfriends agree to help her out, and together they begin performing "odd jobs" for the all-too-eager neighborhood men. Based on the smash-hit 1978 adult film, "Debbie Does Dallas: The Musical" contains no nudity or sex -- but this performance at Oasis in San Francisco is still a salacious and hilarious theater experience.

Brimming with poetic language and emotional longing, Tennessee Williams' memory play "The Glass Menagerie" is rightly considered a true classic, a work that's lost none of its power over the generations. Set in a Depression-era St. Louis tenement, aspiring poet Tom struggles with a mind-numbing job and a smothering home life. His overbearing mother, a former Southern belle, constantly pushes her son to bring home a "gentleman caller" for his painfully shy sister Laura, whose collection of glass animals mean everything to her. But when Tom finally produces a male visitor, the guest's presence sends shock waves through the family -- and the fragile fantasy world they've built may be irreparably shattered. Experience this moving, beautiful production, helmed by acclaimed Chicago director Lisa Portes, at Cal Shakes Bruns Amphitheater in Orinda. [less-]

This is not your grandmother's gospel. "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" is set in a time-bending, darkly comic world between heaven and hell, where Jesus' betrayer Judas stands trial in purgatory as his lawyers bargain for his admission to heaven. The trial flashes through Judas' life, all the way back to his childhood, while incredible figures from history and beyond are called to testify -- figures like Mother Teresa, Sigmund Freud and even Satan himself. As the trial unfolds, audience members must confront old truths and examine what it means to really forgive during a production that ranges between hilarious dark comedy and intimate, touching drama. Written by Stephen Adly Guirgis, winner of the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, this production of "The Last Days of Judas Iscariot" can be seen at Shelton Theater in San Francisco. [less-]

Visited by his father's ghost and tasked with avenging his murder, Prince Hamlet descends into madness and homicidal rage in Shakespeare's masterpiece. In the Bard's immortal words, Hamlet meditates on the nature of life versus death, fate versus choice and art versus reality in an eloquence that has yet to be matched: "To be or not to be" will forever provoke soul-searching in audiences. Something may be rotten in Denmark, but "Hamlet" remains fresh -- especially in San Francisco performing group Ninjaz Of Drama's take. Edited down to a chamber drama and performed by a earnest cast in modern dress with minimal staging, this faithful yet innovative interpretation of the play is sure to entertain both the discerning lover of Shakespeare and those experiencing it for the first time. The psychological thrill ride of revenge, sex, greed and the supernatural comes to the Phoenix Theatre San Francisco. [less-]
