With the Wyly Theatre's glass walls open wide, downtown Dallas becomes the literal backdrop for the outrageously funny sketch comedy of The Second City Does Dallas. The city itself is at the heart of this show, which finds the funny in all that's great (and not so great) about life in the Big D. Members of the hometown Brierley Resident Acting Company team up with the comic performers of the Windy City-based Second City in this Chicago-style satire. Matt Hovde directs the show, which features original sketch material and music.

Anything Goes: Cole Porter's Award-Winning Musical

Full Price:
$65.00 - $95.00
Our Price:
$39.00 - $57.00

Showcasing Cole Porter's signature wit and masterful composition, Roundabout Theatre Company's Tony-winning production of Anything Goes features beloved songs such as "I Get a Kick Out of You" and "You're the Top." This timeless tale of boy-meets-girl and the resulting roller coaster ride centers on Billy Crocker, who falls hopelessly in love with a wealthy heiress. When he sees her boarding a boat to London, he throws caution to the wind and becomes a stowaway. Madcap hijinks ensue when his fellow passengers, including the evangelist-turned-nightclub-singer Reno Sweeney and second-rate gangster Moonface Martin, decide to help Billy win his true love.

Great show. They really did their research on Dallas and the burbs. You could tell some of the jokes hit a little too close to home and didn't go over as well...but that doesn't mean they weren't true. You can't go to an improv show and not expect to be laughed at. Had a great time. Very professionally done. Great venue. Great show.

Great combination of skits and improv. Talented performers. Some of the humor a little forced but overall very enjoyable and about a 7 - 8 on the guffawmeter. Seating for the floor in easy chairs and oveseats / sofas made it very enjoyable as well.

Great theater and relaxed setup with some lounge chairs toward the front, cabaret tables in the center, and regular theater seating at the back. The performance was high energy and a lot of fun if you don't mind some serious ribbing about all things Dallas.
