Editor's Choices for the Week


Thursday 7.17

Home Suite Home. Printmaking is a subtle art that captures not only the artist's original intent, but also the minute differences and aberrations caused by the process of replication. "Suite Oklahoma II," curated by Adrienne Day, charts the current work of 18 different contemporary Oklahoma printmakers. The exhibit, at the Tulsa Artists' Coalition Gallery, 9 E. Brady, is an exchange portfolio, in which each artist receives a portfolio with a print from each of the other participating artists. A variety of methods are represented, from intaglio to relief, serigraphy and lithography. Solar plate, collage, monotype and sewing are also incorporated into a number of pieces. Stop by through July 26 from 6-9pm, Thurs.-Sat. Call 592-0041 for more.

Friday 7.18

Party Hard. All good things must come to an end, well a near end at least. Come say goodbye with the Farewell to The Continental concert tonight at, um, The Continental, 421 E. 1st St. The hip downtown bar isn't closing; it's merging with McNellie's (right next door) to be used for private events. Before you need a VIP pass to get in, come check out Straight Lines, Stevedore, Dance Robots Dance!, Balthazar and Cracker Wagon rock the stage in a farewell fitting to this cool little club. Visit myspace.com/continentaltulsa for more.

Saturday 7.19

Fab Faux. It is rare to meet someone who has actually had the privilege of seeing one of the most influential bands of all time. Now you may finally get your chance to see The Beatles, well sorta, thanks to tonight's show 1964...The Tribute at the Tulsa PAC, 110 E. 2nd St. While it isn't the same, 1964 comes dang close and is widely considered the best Beatles cover band around. In fact, they are the only band legally allowed to pretend to be The Beatles. Get your lighters ready and check out the show. Call 596-711 or visit tulsapac.com for more information.

Sunday 7.20

Bowl a 300 for Rhinos. Wouldn't it be nice to go bowling with the knowledge that you were doing more than just earning turkeys and drinking beers?

Well, the Tulsa Zoo has the perfect remedy to bowling malaise--their 6th annual Bowling for Rhinos event benefits those tough, leathery-skinned creatures you know and love. Head to Mickey's Bowling Alley at Eastland Mall, 14002 E. 21 St., to register and the bowling starts at 6pm. You can feel good about every strike and spare, because 100 percent of proceeds benefit the conservation of rhinos and their diverse ecosystems in Africa and Asia.

Monday 7.21

Drums of Summer. We know you've always wanted to see a professional drum corps perform. The excitement of competition, the pounding beat of the drums... okay, maybe it was just us. In any case, you can experience the thrill for yourself at the Drum Corps International Summer Music Games, where seven of the nation's top drum and bugle corps will perform as they prepare for the World Championships. The competing teams, including the Blue Nights of Denver and the Troopers of Casper, WY, are known as "Marching Bands Major Leagues." The event is hosted by the Broken Arrow Band Parents Association and begins at 7pm at Broken Arrow High School Memorial Stadium, 1907 E Albany. Visit www.dci.com for more.

Tuesday 7.22

Two to Tango. Six years. Six scenes. This is all that comprises Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Donald Margulis' Collected Stories, playing tonight at Heller Theater, 5328 S. Wheeling. Short story writer Ruth Steiner and her young graduate assistant and protégé Lisa Morrison become friends and even peers. As their six year relationship matures tensions rise and a bitter rivalry ensues over intellectual property. Can't we all just get along? Call 746-5065 or visit hellertheatre.com for more information.

Wednesday, 7.23

Bye Bye Bubba. It's good to be an Okie. Get absorbed in a truly Okie experience tonight with "Honky Tonk Angels--Bubba's Revenge" at the John H. Williams Theater of the Tulsa PAC. Tonight's show features performances of "Achy Breaky Heart," "On the Road Again," "Rhinestone Cowboy," "Islands in the Stream" and many more. If you've been keeping up with the "Honky Tonk Angels," you'll be sad this is the last installment. If not, you'll just be glad you saw it while you could. Tickets are $20-24.

Thursday 7.17

Veg Out. Don't you hate it when a monster attacks your garden right before the big vegetable festival? Fear not. Your heroes have arrived. In Wallace and Gromit and the Curse of the Were-Rabbit, playing today at the Circle Cinema, 10 S. Lewis, our heroes (Wallace and Gromit) have started a humane pest removal business in the days before the big local veggie festival. Unfortunately for the pest-fighting duo, a giant beast has come to destroy the gardens throughout their village. See how the gang solves this problem today at 3:30pm. This showing is presented for free by the Tulsa Library. Call 585-3456 or visit circlecinema.com for more.
