Habatat Galleries is hosting a festive holiday party featuring a solo exhibition by glass master Binh Pho from 6:30 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Friday, Dec. 18, at the Galleries in down- town West Palm Beach. Binh Pho, who was born in 1955 in Saigon, says the common theme in his work is “moving beyond bound- aries”. A master wood turner, Binh Pho started expressing his aesthetic in cast glass, an art form that took him years of research and practice to perfect. His unique, groundbreak- ing techniques use precise painting and fine brushwork melded with his turned wood or cast glass pieces.

The riotous revue features outrageous costumes, hysterical rewrites of familiar songs and dead-on impressions from Annie to The Book of Mormon and everything in between. “You don’t have to be a theater maven to laugh yourself silly.” – New York Daily News The Producers The Mel Brooks Musical Thursday, December 31 at 8 pm %SFZGPPT

 A scheming producer and his mousy accountant aim to produce the biggest flop on Broadway in Mel Brooks’ laugh-out-loud spectacle. Bialystock and Bloom! These names should strike terror and hysteria in anyone familiar with Brooks’ 1968 satirical dark comedy film. Now a must-see Broadway musical, The Producers sets the standard for modern, outrageous, in-your-face humor, winning a record 12 Tony Awards and wowing capacity crowds night after night.
