Terrence McNally, the man who wrote “Master Class” and “Love! Valour! Compassion!” wrote this pair of one-acts in the early ‘70s and set them in warring rest homes to examine how bucking the status quo can often be the best revenge. Square MaMa resurrects the one-acts for your summer viewing.
- Terrence McNally’s “Bad Habits,” through Aug. 30 at Theatre Rhinoceros, 2926 16th ST., San Francisco (one block from 16th Street BART station). www.squaremama.com
One of Canada’s most acclaimed performance art duos, 2boys.tv, Stephen Lawson and Aaron Pollard, bring their unique repertoire of “epic multimedia performance” to the States. Described as an “inimitable blend of burlesque, video projections, opera, show tunes and old films,” the boys will present “Puree” and “Zona.”
- “2boys.tv,” through Aug. 31 at New Conservatory Theatre Center, 25 Van Ness Ave., San Francisco. $22-$34.
Every summer, Thunderbird Theatre premieres something funny. This year we get a show with a tag line: “Jane Austen Sucks (blood).” Yes, Jane Austen meets vampires in “Pride & Succubus,” the creation of Claire Rice.
- Thunderbird Theatre’s “Pride & Succubus,” through Aug. 23 at New Langton Arts, 1246 Folsom St., San Francisco. $17-$25.
One of the most intriguing offerings of the summer, Gary Aylesworth’s “The Ballad of Edgar Cayce” is a “bluegrass operetta” about one of the world’s most famous so-called psychics who attempted to channel spirit voices to answer the great questions of existence such as: was there really an Atlantis? The show is performed by Aylesworth and Peter Newton, who also supply the live music.
- Gary Aylesworth’s “The Ballad of Edgar Cayce,” through Aug. 30 at Traveling Jewish Theatre, 47- Florida St., San Francisco. $15-$20.
The characters of Dr. Seuss come to musical life in “Seussical the Musical” created by the same team that brought Doctorow’s “Ragtime” to the stage. Kids and adults appreciate the travails of Horton, who hears a Who, Maisy the Duck, who admires her tail. “Seussical the Musical,” through Aug. 17 at Woodminster Amphitheater, Joaquin Miller Park, Oakland. $23-$38.
