To think you'll learn how to wield a lightsaber makes you chuckle, until you try it. The Lightsaber OKC instructor has almost two decades in the game with Aikido, and definitely uses "the force" to master a lightsaber. The group I was with met on a Tuesday evening at the Myriad Botanical Gardens for an hour training. I must say, I learned quite a bit, and wish Lightsaber OKC had a permanent facility to keep doing this. It was so much fun, and allowed me to channel my inner geek. This is an extremely unique and once-in-a-lifetime thing go try.

Wish I had taken a photo of the stage before the play started to share here. Two story stage worked well in how we were able to see the characters in private conversations which switched so smoothly between scenes. The play is set in 1937, in the Great Depression with the hardships of earning enough money to meet the family's needs. Serious subjects with lots of humor thrown in. Tears and lots of laughter. All the actors were amazing. So pleased Terry found a cast with so much dedication to the craft, down to perfect accents!

When we arrived the grounds were in bad condition and run-down. The ticket person who i later read was the manager didn't even greet us and failed to offer us a playbill.

Really beautiful theater here; they have an indoor and an outdoor stage. The indoor theater is…read morestunning; I love the ambiance and earthy tones. The outdoor area is sloped perfectly, and it allows for an ideal stadium seating type view. They have a great speaker system for the outdoor area along with stadium style lighting. Lots of activity from birds and really beautiful nature around the outdoor space There are four entrances I could count... there may be more lol. Two are in the art gallery; one off of paseo drive and the other in parking lot off 29th and dewey. The other two entrances I saw led directly to the outdoor stage that came from the alley on the south between sauced and the theatre, and then 29th street on the north The art gallery is artsy and they have a small concession stand in there with canned beer, wine, water, soda, and some chips and candy. There's also a small clothing store/art gallery attached on the north side

Upon entrance you see the will-call window. Enter through the red door to the left. There were a few tables with chairs in the middle, art for sale on the wall. And then double doors to the left to the theater and bathrooms to the right. All the way at the back had a small area selling drinks and snacks. They're advertised as a local theater, but the caliber of the talent was phenomenal. The actors transported us back in time to tell this beautiful and sad story. We thoroughly enjoyed the performance, so much so that we already got tickets for their next play, "Beer for Breakfast" (Oct 17-Nov 2, 2025).

There are 8 plays in the season but you can buy smaller packages. We sometimes are gone and use our extra tickets to later bring friends to a different play. That is the beauty of flex packs. CST has a great reception area with art on display and they sell drinks including cocktails, and snacks. The theatre scene is alive and well in Oklahoma. We also like Jewel Box Theatre and the Civic Center. The play's description: Winn Dottie and Ruth Hamilton have always kept their lives in order, living each day in rural isolation and contentment. All of that changes when the sheriff drops a battered teenager on their doorstep and asks them to keep them safe. The question is--can these two older women get past their own ingrained ideas of how life should be to protect a teenager they don't even understand? Making Sweet Tea and Other Secrets refers to all the hidden bigotry, prejudice and even brutality a town will turn a blind eye to, until forced to bring those secrets to light and fight back.

For a fun evening, take in an Adele Wolfe Burlesque & Variety Show and you'll never be…read moredisappointed. Adele, producer and accomplished dancer, always has a special group of guests to entertain and titilate your fancy. Adele likes feathers and they look good on her and you will be able to see a great deal of her behind the feathers. She will have a new costume to start every show and they will compliment her form and moves and your imagination - perhaps a silver wolf or a bird of paradise, always new and nice. Her guest performers are fun and provide a variety of special burlesque entertainment. Perhaps you like hula hoops, or a black wolf with all the moves, or a WWII soldier - you may have seen these outfits and many others on Ms Wolf's guests and they always come off to reveal the treasures that lay beneath. One of the highlights of every show is the gorgeous guest bellydancer, somehow managing to look exotic and beautiful, seemingly expending little or no effort, as she dances, glides, shimmies and teases. There is always a surprise at the Adele Wolf shows: perhaps Adele's mother will make another guest birthday or anniversary appearance; maybe she will think up another game of contestants taking the panties off the clothesline with, what else, their mouths; and always prizes that will have the guests in stitches. You will want to return to see who the next MC will be: a good looking fifth grade teacher or perhaps a cross dresser that will take your breath away, you never know. And, not last or least, there will be the tall person, dressed in black, quiet but the ever present Beaver! who does the hard stuff like pulling numbers out of a hat or holding the hat in a provocative way for another guest to draw the numbers. You will leave with a bit of wispy bit of smoke curling about your mind about who this dazzling auburn haired beauty really is. This is Adele Wolf's Burlesque, always fun, always a class act done with style and grace!

The costumes were just beautiful. I couldn't get over the colors, my eyes were just drawn to the stage. The music was just the icing on the cake. I couldn't get enough. I shocked how my emotions can be portrayed with no words. I took my husband and he was surprised how much he enjoyed it as well. Next time will take my daughter too. I didn't realize that this was a performance for the whole family. The ballet is truly for all ages. We will definitely be at the next OKC Ballet production.
