It's catch-up time

Catch up on your to-do list this weekend because next Friday is another big opening night in Fairfax, with shows playing for several weeks.

 

Five shows open Jan. 18: "An Experiment with an Air Pump" in Reston; "Goldilocks on Trial" in Centreville; "Red Hot & Cole" in McLean; "Prelude to a Kiss" in Vienna; and "Some Girl(s)" in Manassas.

 

For a snapshot of each production as well as showtimes and ticket prices, go to www.fairfaxtimes.com/news/2008/jan/08/local-theater-groups-gear-january-shows/

 

After you've purchased your tickets, then you can think about taking down the Christmas tree and putting away all those lights.
