Mystery, Bowling and School Benefits

From dinner theatre to standard theatre, from an auction gala to cosmic bowling, take your pick of fun outings this weekend.

    When/Where: 7 p.m. Friday, Feb. 25 and Saturday, Feb. 26, at Crestwood Court, 109 Crestwood Plz
    Why Go: How often do you get to witness a murder during dinner, and gather clues over dessert? Hopefully not often.

  • Providence Academy Auction Gala
    When/Where: 6 p.m. Friday, Feb. 25, at Two Hearts Banquet Center, 4532 S Lindbergh Blvd.
