Dixie’s Tupperware Party is coming to The Kennedy Center’s Family Theater from May 7^th to June 2^nd!

Kris Andersson’s alter ego, Dixie Longate, is the fast-talking, gum-chewing, ginger-haired Alabama gal who is bringing your grandma’s Tupperware party into the 21st century. Audiences howl with laughter as Dixie demonstrates the many alternative uses for the iconic plastic kitchen staple. Filled with outrageously funny tales, heartfelt accounts, audience participation, and a little bit of empowerment and homespun wisdom, Dixie’s Tupperware Party leaves your heart a little bigger and your food a little fresher.

With tickets starting at only $35, you won’t want to miss this outrageously amusing show. Dixie’s Tupperware Party is recommended for audiences ages 16 and older as the program includes adult content.

Rogue Cornhole is excited to bring back Rogue Cornhole Summer Nights, hosted by Pitchers DC! The summer league is a REMIX-style registration. That means everyone will register as a Free Agent and then we will randomly create teams of 4-5 based on experience and skill level. We'll allow you to ask for ONE individual you'd like to be paired with (optional), but otherwise, the groupings will be random. This style is designed to help free agents register, maintain a relaxed summer game environment, and allow you to meet new people!

Registration for all players begins Thursday, May 9th at 8 am. We will be kicking off the season on Wednesday, June 12th! LEARN MORE AND REGISTER HERE: https://www.rlsports.org/cornhole/
