🎶 Welcome to the ’60s
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh! 🎶 

With big dance numbers, even bigger hair, and a cast that collectively stole the show, Hairspray was the perfect high-energy start to The Muny’s 108th season. It sparked one of the fastest standing ovations we’ve ever witnessed! 💃

There’s something so special—and so uniquely St. Louis—about spending a summer night watching stars beneath the stars, and seeing Richard Kind (Only Murders in the Building, Spin City) take the stage as Edna Turnblad made opening night all the more memorable. 🌟

Muny, you’re timeless to us! 🫶

 🎟️ The beat goes on through June 21st.

We know what you’re thinking. And no, this is NOT your typical snow cone! 🍧

Taiwanese shaved ice is in a league of its own! 🇹🇼 Shaved into impossibly delicate ribbons, it's light, creamy, and downright dreamy. One spoonful and you'll understand why we’re obsessed!

Whether you're team matcha 🍵, feeling fruity 🥭, or craving chocolate 🍫, every bowl is a sweet retreat from the St. Louis heat.

Cheers to 3 years of Ice Cave bringing unforgettable flavors and a taste of Taiwan to the Central West End! ❄️

A, B, C this show as soon as you can! 📚

The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee kicks off STAGES’ 40th Anniversary Season with heart, humor, and a cast that’s impossible not to root for. 🐝 Whether you’re a spelling whiz or it wasn’t your strongest subject in school, this musical is sure to have you buzzing long after the trophy’s awarded.

Want to be part of the action? There’s onstage seating available for $40 a ticket, or if you think you’ve got what it takes to bee a speller, you can even inquire about competing! Don’t worry, they’ll go easy on you—at first! 🤪

The fun runs through June 28th. Reserve your seats today! 🎟️

Saint Louis Dance Theatre closes out its Love Languages Season with the Spring Series—culminating in a profound examination of human connection. 🌿

Catch the show May 29–31, including a special Community Night performance Sunday at 7:30 pm that’s pay-what-you-wish, making world-class concert dance more accessible to all.

Because art belongs to everyone—and every budget! 🎟️

It’s Tuesday… and we’ve got taco news! 🌮

The brothers behind UKRAFT Brunch Café are back with a new concept in Ballwin—reimagining Tex-Mex with fast-casual speed and full-on flavor. 🌯

They’ve put their twist on all the staples and snuck in a few surprises 🌽 (Birria Rangoon + Street Corn Rangoon coming soon)!

As for the margs and cocktails? Killer! 🍋‍🟩

GuacoTaco is opening to the public any second. Keep an eye on their socials for more details—and when they do, let’s pack the place! 🔥

If your version of “outdoorsy” involves cocktails, skyline views, and a summer soundtrack… ART Bar makes getting fresh air way more fun! ☀️ There is lush greenery and garden-inspired vibes... So, totally counts as touching grass right?

We tried four cocktails off their Summer in the Sky menu and would re-order the whole lineup:
�🩵 Blue Lagoon�🍓 Strawberry Galaxy Long Island�🏝️ Drunken Sailor Rum Punch�🥭 Mango Mojito

Plus, the shareable bites make it easy to settle in!

Save this spot for the next time you want to take the scenic route! 🌆

Make a run for Platform 9¾—you’ve got a train to catch! 🚂

Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is bringing a whole new chapter of magic to St. Louis. ⚡️

Expect new friendships, old rivalries, and stage magic so real, we’re still wondering how they did it.

So ready those wands! 🪄

And remember—the show starts promptly. Be in your seats… or Professor McGonagall just might deduct points from your house. 😉

The Hogwarts Express won’t be at the station for long! This show runs through April 12th.

Nothing lifts our mood like live theatre!

Winner of the 2024 Pulitzer Prize for Drama, Primary Trust at The Rep is deeply human and heartwarming.

We follow Kenneth—a creature of habit whose world revolves around his steady bookstore job and nights spent at his favorite tiki bar. But when life nudges him out of that predictability, he’s forced to confront old grief, growing pains, and what it really means to trust—himself and others.

Primary Trust is quietly hopeful and simply moving—best paired with Kenneth’s go-to Mai Tai! Performances run through March 1st. 🍹
