"Why I'm No Longer a Brain-Dead Liberal"
An election-season essay from one of America's greatest playwrights.
By David Mamet
Nothing says “Mmm, these ribs sure are tender” like being surrounded by endangered species. At the second annual Feast with the Beasts, lions, tigers and African wild dogs — bet you thought we were going to say bears — will be feasting on their own treats alongside humans. Catering for Homo sapiens comes courtesy of more than 35 top area restaurants, including Rainbow Lodge, Zula, Hugo’s and Picnic. The night will also feature live music from jazz singer Yvonne Washington and the Mix, Urbana and Nobody’s Fool and Q&A sessions with the keepers. But keep in mind, it’s not “Feast like the Beasts,” so chew with your mouth closed. 7 p.m. 1513 North MacGregor. For tickets and information, call 713-533-6500 or visit www.houstonzoo.org. $80
Fri., Oct. 12, 7 p.m., 2007
