Yes, today is April Fools Day but there are no joke entries on this week’s list of best virtual bets. Instead, let’s look toward another, more obscure non-holiday holiday: International Fun at Work Day. And let us recommend that fun come in the form of an extended break to enjoy one of this week’s digital programs. Who doesn’t like sneak peeks and spoilers? This Thursday, April 1, at 6:30 p.m. you can join Contemporary Arts Museum Houston for an excerpt from “ Rule #4: Don’t walk on the sidewalk,” a dance work from Hope Stone Dance that will be presented in full this summer. The virtual performance, filmed at CAMH last fall, features five women – Jacquelyne Boe, Kayla Collymore, Rachael Hutto, Lindsey McGill, and Brit Wallis-McGrath – in an exploration of the societal rules women are encouraged to observe. You can view the work-in-progress for free here, and remember to check back with Hope Stone Dance for the complete work in July.

By Rebekah Kibodeaux 3/16/2021 at 3:05pm Shunte Lofton, Melissa Molano, and Dylan Godwin in the Alley Theatre s Medea. For more than 2,500 years, Euripidesâs Medea has shocked and enthralled audiences across the globe with its high-stakes social commentary and its poetic, heart-wrenching feminism. This week, the Alley Theatre brings a free, translated version of the Greek tragedy to the living rooms of its dedicated patrons and, hopefully, a slew of new audiences, with its virtual performance spearheaded by Artistic Director Rob Melrose and featuring Alley Resident Acting Company member Elizabeth Bunch in the titular role.
