ilume Gallerie feeds your desires
Ask anyone who’s dated a bad boy: We can’t always control our desires. And few things make us lust — or at least covet — more than a sexy ride … whether it’s on wheels or in our living room. ilume Gallerie is bringing back one of its hottest exhibits with Objects of Desire II, an intoxicating collection of furnishings like chairs, desks, lamps and screens — objects of art that are also functional. There’s an opening night
reception on Friday.

Sexy ‘Peer Gynt’ opens TBT’s season
Speaking of bad boys …. ohhh, that Peer Gynt. A rascal, a womanizer and a well-traveled heel, for 150 years he has been one of theater’s most compelling antiheroes.

DEETS:
Bass Performance Hall, 525 Commerce St.,
Fort Worth, Oct. 19–21 and Music Hall at Fair Park
