Yes, it’s snowing, and yes, snuggling up at home sounds great. But here’s the thing: Sweaters and boots were invented for a reason, and that reason is to allow you to do fun things in the cold. Magic! So, bundle up and hit the town—as always, there’s plenty to see and do. Here’s what’s on my personal entertainment calendar this week, but remember, these are just the tip of the iceberg—there's plenty of great performance worth braving the outside world. And if you just can't bear to leave your blankets just yet, there's always next week.
Fiddler on the Roof
Fiddler has aged better than many golden-age musicals, and I’m curious to see this national tour of the 2015 Broadway revival directed by Bartlett Sher, well-known refresher of midcentury properties. This is one of those shows you know songs from, whether you realize it or not—“If I Were a Rich Man,” “Matchmaker,” “Tradition,” etc—but here's a plot refresher, just in case: In a small Russian Jewish village, milkman Tevye wonders how he’ll marry off his many daughters, his daughters are fed up with traditional rules, and a revolution is brewing that may obliterate this traditional stronghold altogether. Should be good. 1/14–1/19, Paramount Theatre
BurlesKaraoke
If you like the two title activities, this show is the most fun you can legally have on a Wednesday night. It’s exactly what it sounds like: bar patrons sing karaoke while burlesque performers dance to whatever songs come their way. Hostess Ruby Mimosa leads the talented, rotating cast of dancers, who bless this bar stage with a sense of humor, high production value and insane flexibility. Full disclosure: This is a NSFW event, bring your singles and your singing voice and get ready to party. 1/15, Queer Bar
