Minecraft Experience: Villager Rescue is the ultimate immersive, interactive adventure. The event gives longtime Minecraft players their first chance to be heroes in a real-life, in-person Minecraft quest. Battle mobs, collect resources, and experience Minecraft in a whole new way. The first-ever Minecraft Experience takes place through Jan. 5 at 2712 North Central Expressway in Plano – that’s immediately west of Parker Road Station on the Red Line.

’til Midnight at the Nasher presents live outdoor concerts, progressive tours, and film screenings – along with the permanent collection and special exhibitions. There is also food and bar service.  Tonight, enjoy music by RC & Friends, followed by a screening of Inside Out 2. The Nasher Sculpture Center is walkable from St. Paul Station on all four DART Rail lines, or from the M-Line trolley.

A Gentleman’s Guide to Love and Murder is a murderous romp full of music and laughs. Can the low-born Monty Navarro knock off his unsuspecting relatives without being caught and become the ninth Earl of Highhurst? Find out through Nov. 3 at The Firehouse Theatre, near the Green Line’s Farmers Branch Station.

Jeff Lynne’s ELO comes to Dallas as part of the band’s final tour. See the ’70s legends at American Airlines Center. Get to the station by taking the Green Line, Orange Line, or TRE to Victory Station.
