Holocaust Museum presents play about being gay under Nazi rule
A Jew and a gay man stood about equal chances of survival in Nazi Germany, which forged friendship between folks reviled simply for being who they were. The Timekeepers is a three-man play that portrays one of those relationships, where searing humor helps them each face the grimness of reality with their humanity intact. The Dallas Holocaust Museum presents Theatre New West’s limited-run production with talk-backs on Friday nights.
DEETS:
Dallas Holocaust Museum
211 N. Record St.
Through June 22. Wednesdays–Saturdays. $20. TheTimekeepers.eventbrite.com.

A night of Inspiration & Hope with Sandi Patty and the Turtle Creek Chorale
When it comes to Christian music, there’s nobody more respected than Sandi Patty, a five-time Grammy Award winner. But Patty isn’t your “typical” Christian musician, as her appearance with the gay Turtle Creek Chorale should attest. She joins TCC artistic director Trey Jacobs onstage for the group’s final concert of the season, themed, appropriately enough, Inspiration & Hope.
DEETS:
Meyerson Symphony Center
2103 Flora St.
June 20. 8 p.m. $20–$75.
