Texas Flood Denton Drive Live

CANCELLED: FARMERS BRANCH PARKS DEPARTMENT HAS CANCELLED THIS EVENT DUE TO THE EXTREME HEAT.
Denton Drive Live!
presents Texas Flood, one of the premier blues outfits in all of Texas. The group plays the kind of aggressive blues you’d expect from the Lone Star State.

The show takes place at The Grove, a short walk from Farmers Branch Station.

Secret Comedy of WomenThe Secret Comedy of Women celebrates girlhood and womanhood with an immersive evening of theater. The two-woman show is a rollicking evening of comedy, song, dance, and storytelling – plus plenty of audience participation. Catch the show through July 31 at the Eisemann Center for Performing Arts, just across the plaza from Galatyn Park Station on the Red Line.

Matilda the Musical  centers on a precocious 5-year-old girl with telekinesis. During the course of the family-friendly musical, she overcomes many obstacles. See the Company of Rowlett Performers’ production at the Plaza Theatre, a short walk from the Blue Line’s Downtown Garland Station. Performances also happen July 10 and July 16-17.

Carrollton CrittersSaturdays on the Square: Christmas in July is the City of Carrollton’s free, reoccurring event in Historic Downtown Carrollton. It’s time to celebrate the Christmas season, almost. From 6-8 p.m., you can play inside a giant snow globe, take photos with Santa, and enjoy Christmas crafts.
