Mr. Dallas Eagle kicks off 2014 leather season
It’s one of the the important stepping stones on the way to the leather immortality: Win Mr. Dallas Eagle, then go on to Mr. Texas Leather and maybe take the title International Mr. Leather. But you gotta start with Mr. Dallas Eagle, which you can this weekend, with the two-day competition. It starts on Friday with the meet-and-greet on onstage intros, then the public can see them in action with the pre-contest party, runway performances and victory celebration. (Those interested in competing should visit DallasEagle.com before the action starts on Friday.)

‘Hedwig’ offers encore performance
It was supposed to run just two weekends, but the Little Production That Could was a sell-out, and so now it’s back. Hedwig and the Angry Inch is one of the most fun rock musicals ever conceived, about an East German transgender musician delivering a “revenge” concert at the same time as her more famous lover. This production comes back for one more time like Hedwig herself, with Danny Anchondo and Mel Arizpe making the noice.
DEETS:
Bath House Cultural Center
521 E. Lawther Drive.
8 p.m. $20.
