On Thursday, DIFFA hosts its annual preview party, where attendees can get a sneak peak and up-close look at some of the creations that will be walking the runway (from the likes of Dolce & Gabbana, Ted Baker, Theory and Zac Posen), while enjoying the music of DJ Steffi Burns and sipping on Ketel One cocktails, champagne and snacks. Proceeds, of course, benefit DIFFA’s goals to combat HIV.

WTT opens cross-cultural comedy ‘Guadalupe in the Guest Room’

Some people build walls, some build bridges. That’s the message of Guadalupe in the Guest Room, a heartfelt comedy opening this weekend at WaterTower Theatre. Spanish-speaking Guadalupe cannot communicate easily with her gringo son-in-law Steve, until the two bond over telenovelas in this story about searching for common ground. The cast includes Leticia Magana, Andrews W. Cope, Gabrielle Reyes and David Lugo; Christina Vela directs.
