The Stage Never Looked So Good
OK, this simply can’t be ignored ladies. Theatre Three on Routh Street is featuring a production of Sherlock Holmes in the Crucifer of Blood through Sept. 5. Why should you immediately by tickets? Because actor Chuck Huber (left) is starring as the dashing detective, and he happens to be the yummiest hottest Holmes since Robert Downey Jr. The production, directed by Jeffrey Schmidt, is a dressed up, neo-Victorian, science fiction-y version of the traditional stories. And the buzz is that Huber has updated the main character as well: in a sexy, growly, tortured kind of way. You don’t have to be a detective to figure out why those seats are going to be filled every night. Yowza. Cost is $10 – $40.

Panty Party Anyone?

The best part is, a portion of the proceeds from any of the fabulous lingerie you take home will go to The Family Place, which benefits victims of family violence. We can think of few better ways to beat this summer heat than hanging out in our underwear, eating cupcakes in air-conditioned splendor. See you there!

Think You’re Good At Wakeboarding?
You’ve got nothing on the boys behind Shredtown. The 20-something group of wakeboarding stuntmen, which consists of HP native Andrew Adams, Chris Abadie, and Davis Griffin, are making a name for themselves on the water sport scene. Known for their winching skills, the guys video all their gravity defying moves on their blog, which has landed them on the cover of several sports mags. The masters of shred took some time out of their busy rip boarding schedules to chat with me from their Lake Athens “office.” You can all about their waterfront “winchtopia” in the July 23 issue of Park Cities People.By Silver Hogue Jul. 16, 2010 | 11:29 am | 1 Comment | Comments RSS
