Atlas Resident Arts Partner, Solas Nua, presents Crocodile Fever
Saturday, October 17, 2:00 PM

Northern Ireland, 1989. A farmhouse window smashes, and rebellious Fianna Devlin crashes back into the life of her pious sister Alannah.

Together for the first time in years, when they’re forced to confront their tyrannical father’s hideous legacy, all hell breaks loose.

Fuelled by Taytos, gin, 80s tunes and a chainsaw, Meghan Tyler’s surreal Crocodile Fever is a grotesque black comedy celebrating sisterhood whilst reminding us that the pressure cooker of The Troubles is closer than we imagine.

🎭 Consider this your sign to plan a night at the theater

📍Mosaic Theater Company at Atlas Performing Arts Center | H Street NE, Washington, DC

Hey foodies & friends! 💛 I officially need to start going to the theater more often!

I spent the evening seeing Somewhere Over the Border, a musical inspired by The Wizard of Oz that follows Reina on an unforgettable journey from El Salvador to America.

And the MUSIC! 🎶 Cumbia, mariachi, rock, hip hop and more. In just 110 minutes, this show had me smiling, excited, completely wrapped up in the story, and yes, even shedding a few tears. 🥹

If you’re looking for something different to do in DC for date night, girls’ night, or even a solo night out, add a night at the theater to your plans.

🎟️ Somewhere Over the Border is playing through October 18. Use code 20BORDER for 20% off tickets.

✨ Follow for restaurants, travel, culture, and unforgettable experiences worth adding to your list.

Save this for your next DC night out! 🎭

Capital City Symphony: Mysterious Landscapes
Sunday, October 4, 5:00 PM

Every journey starts with a single step. Or in Doreen Carwithen’s case, One Damn Thing After Another. Her exhilarating concert overture ODTAA opens our season at full stride, all momentum and mischief. Then the spotlight turns to the newest voice on our stage: Caroline Su, the winner of CCS’s Novik Competition, performing Mozart’s Piano Concerto in Bb Major, No. 15, K450 with Capital City Symphony, under the baton of Maestra Gau.

From there, we climb. New Zealand composer Maria Grenfell’s River Mountain Sky paints the natural world in shimmering orchestral color, and Alan Hovhaness’s beloved Symphony No. 2, Mysterious Mountain, closes the evening in radiant stillness, as Hovhaness says, “reaching toward something higher than ourselves.”

March On!: New Orleans' National Impact
Saturday, October 3, 7:00 PM

At the heart of this special event is a rare, intimate roundtable with members of three of New Orleans’ most influential civil rights families — the Francis, Landrieu, and Morial families — whose leadership represents a powerful, enduring legacy that helped shape not just New Orleans but the broader arc of American democracy.

Shining a light on a state whose pivotal role in the Civil Rights Movement is too often overlooked, this conversation — brings forward a legacy of courage, collaboration, and breakthrough leadership, connecting that history directly to the challenges and responsibilities of today.

Adding to the experience, Crush Funk Brass Band will bring the spirit of New Orleans to life through live music and a special presentation on the tradition of Second Line parades — a joyful, community-rooted practice long serving as an expression of resilience, remembrance, and celebration.
