"Fanged Dreams" Featuring the works of Carolyn Colby and HP Fangs
2025-08-16 19:00 - 21:00 (America/New_York) | Elsewhere Salon, 511 Castle ST, Wilmington, NC, 28401, United States
Elsewhere invites you into “Fanged Dreams”, a one-night mashup of wild imagination, luminous beauty, and unapologetic goofiness.
Wilmington artist Carolyn Colby conjures dreamscapes that shimmer like stained glass—only if stained glass could sprout cats in flower crowns wearing space helmets, mermaids made of petals, and flocks of cosmic owls sailing through surreal universes. Her work pulls you in with jewel-toned layers and “how-did-she-even-make-that?” detail, the kind that makes you lean in until your nose almost touches the glass.
HP Fangs brings the bite — but in the dopest way possible. Known for putting big teeth on just about anything (seriously, nothing is safe), Fangs’ illustrations are fueled by 80s/90s pop culture, comic book swagger, and a sharp sense of humor. His characters grin, snarl, and smirk at you in marker-bright colors, all while reminding you that art can be both cool and ridiculous.
Together, Colby and Fangs serve up a visual conversation that’s part daydream, part Saturday morning cartoon — a “what if?” collision of beauty and bite, sparkle and snicker. It’s gonna be dope.

The Art of Dr. Seuss Collection
For over 60 years, Dr. Seuss’s illustrations brought a visual realization to his fantastic and imaginary worlds. However, his artistic talent went far beyond the printed page. Revealing a dazzling rainbow of hues not seen in the primary-color palette of his books for children, Ted’s “Secret Art” paintings exhibit a sophisticated, technically accomplished, and often quite unrestrained side of his talent.
Seuss always dreamed of sharing his “Secret Art” with his fans and had entrusted his wife, Audrey, to carry out his wishes once he was gone. In 1997, this dream was realized when The Art of Dr. Seuss project was launched. For the first time, collectors were able to see and acquire lithographs, serigraphs, and sculptures reproduced from Ted’s original drawings and paintings. In her introduction to the collection Audrey Geisel wrote: “I remember telling Ted that there would come a day when many of his paintings would be seen, and he would thus share with his fans another facet of himself—his private self. That day has come. I am glad.”

Tomáš Kubínek— Certified Lunatic & Master of the Impossible
2025-09-12 19:30 - 22:30 | UNCW Kenan Auditorium, 515 Wagoner Dr, Wilmington, NC 28403, Wilmington, NC, 28036, United States
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No, it’s Tomáš Kubínek in Certified Lunatic & Master of the Impossible! A collision of theatre and music-hall, this exuberant one-man show is equal parts comic brilliance, virtuosic vaudeville, and irresistible charm. With The Seattle Times calling the show, “Equal parts old-time clowning and Monty Pythonesque silliness…the hottest ticket at the festival!”
The show is intended for Adult Audiences.
Tomáš Kubínek – (toh-mawsh koo-bee-neck), was born in Prague and at the age of three was smuggled out of the country by his parents to escape the 1968 Soviet invasion of Czechoslovakia.
After two months in a refugee camp in Austria, the Kubínek family was granted asylum in Canada and it was there, in St. Catharines, Ontario, that Tomáš, age 5, witnessed his first circus.
He became passionately interested in clowns, circus, theater and magic and his perplexed yet well-adjusted parents took him to see every show that passed through town.
At age 9 he presented his first performance before a circle of elderly magicians. By age 13 he had an agent. He performed in coffee-houses between folk-music acts and while still in his teens, he made his circus debut with a Brazilian clown duo as the rear half of a two-person horse. There was no turning back…
Working any and all jobs related to showbiz, the enterprising Mr. Kubínek was able to save money and travel to Europe to study with some of the world’s greatest teachers of theatre including; Monika Pagneaux, Pierre Byland, Jaques Lecoq and Boleslav Polívka.
These studies, combined with his own tireless experiments in the art of live performance, led to the creation of his award-winning solo stage shows which play to capacity crowds at theaters, international arts festivals, and in television broadcasts throughout the world.

“William and Judith” imagines the relationship between William Shakespeare and his equally talented sister, Judith, who arrives in London after being disowned for refusing marriage. Will is facing a crisis of his own- nearing his career’s end, his creative well is running dry, forcing him to rely on collaborators like young John Fletcher. When Burbage requires a play, and Will has none, an act of creative thievery threatens to bring his career- and family life- to an end.

A NEW ERA: OPENING NIGHT WITH PETER ASKIM
2025-09-20 19:30 - 21:30 | Wilson Center Cape Fear Community College, 703 N 3rd St, Wilmington, 28401
2025 GRAMMY-winning Mexican composer Gabriela Ortiz’s incandescent Kauyumari kicks off the WSO’s New Era with a bang, its pulsing rhythms and its relentless energy serving as a metaphor for this exciting new chapter in the orchestra’s history. Following the success of the world premiere of his commissioned work Elegy for the Victims of 1898 at the Wilmington Symphony Orchestra’s November 2023 concert Project 1898, the WSO is proud to once again commission a new piece from Wilmington’s own Algernon Robinson. Drawing on his lifelong connection to the city and the orchestra, Robinson brings a fresh, forward-looking approach to composition, making him a visionary voice who bridges the WSO’s past and future, tradition and innovation. Tchaikovsky’s powerful, lyrical Symphony No. 5 is a journey through human emotion itself, from tragedy to triumph. Encompassing the melancholy of the first movement, the timeless beauty of the second movement (whose Horn solo has inspired numerous popular songs) and rhythmic excitement, it leads to a glorious, joyous conclusion: setting the scene for an exciting season – and Era – to come.

Riot Grrrls: Measure for Measure
2025-09-25 08:00 - 2025-10-05 17:00 | UNCW Mainstage Theatre, 5270 Randall Drive, Wilmington, 28403
Shakespeare’s most provocative play takes the stage in an all-female production that lets the original text speak—sharp, witty, and uncomfortably timely. When Vienna’s long-ignored morality laws are suddenly enforced, a young novice named Isabella finds herself caught between silence and sacrifice.
UNCW Theatre is producing an all-women’s version of Shakespeare’s Measure for Measure as part of the Riot Grrrls series. The production takes on patriarchy, justice, and abuse of power — themes that feel especially urgent right now — with women playing every role.
What makes this especially compelling is that it gives young women the chance to play roles they wouldn’t normally get to touch in Shakespeare — judges, dukes, corrupt officials, and even clowns. Seeing those female voices and bodies in parts written for men changes the way the story lands.
Performances are 7:30pm Thursday-Saturday, and 2:00pm Sunday, from September 25-28, and October 2-5, 2025.

Book, Music and Lyrics by Richard O’Brien In this cult classic, sweethearts Brad and Janet, stuck with a flat tire during a storm, discover the eerie mansion of Dr. Frank-N-Furter. As their innocence is lost, Brad and Janet meet a houseful of wild characters, including a rocking biker and a creepy butler. Through elaborate dances and rock songs, Frank-N-Furter unveils his latest creation: a muscular man named “Rocky.” That “Sweet Transvestite” and his motley crew did the “Time Warp” on Broadway in a 25th anniversary revival. Complete with sass from the audience, cascading toilet paper, and an array of other audience participation props, this deliberately kitschy rock ’n’ roll sci-fi gothic musical is more fun than ever! The original London production of The Rocky Horror Show, directed by Jim Sharman, premiered at the Royal Court Theatre on June 19, 1973 and won the 1973 Evening Standard Theatre Award for Best Musical. Later transferring to several other locations in London, the show ran for a total of 2,960 performances. On March 10, 1975, The Rocky Horror Show opened on Broadway at the Belasco Theatre, starring Tim Curry and featuring Meatloaf and “Ritz” O’Brien. In 2001, the show returned to Broadway at Circle in the Square Theatre, starring Raúl Esparza, Tom Hewitt, Alice Ripley and Jarrod Emick. Directed by Christopher Ashley, the revival ran for 437 performances.
