Pianist Joyce Yang accompanies Aspen Santa Fe Ballet live

Aspen Santa Fe Ballet has often combined its lovely celebration of movement with the presence of an onstage pianist, but nothing quite so thrilling as what the company has in store for Dallas audiences. For both performances, acclaimed pianist Joyce Yang will join the troupe to accompany a poetic dance-en-pointe,
a newly-commissioned piece and another fan favorite.

DEETS:
Moody Performance Hall,
2520 Flora St. 8 p.m.

The one-two punch of Cleveland and Lutz

If there are two local performers we can’t get enough of, they are BJ Cleveland and Janelle Lutz. You might think they couldn’t be more different, but in fact, in addition to being multi-talented singers, they also both do killer versions of Judy Garland and Liza Minnelli. (Cleveland is even writing and directing Lutz as Judy in an upcoming holiday show for Uptown Players.) But this weekend you can see both at Casa Manana with their show An Evening with Liza and Judy (Cleveland as Liza, Lutz as Garland). And you can even catch Lutz on her own at a fundraiser for Second Thought Theatre on Nov. 2 at Sammons.

DEETS:
Casa Manana, 3101 W. Lancaster Ave., Fort Worth.
