    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    This show, entitled “I Don’t Think About You Anymore,” will explore themes of letting go — from memories of a past love and the old versions of ourselves we can be afraid to grow away from to all the anxieties we’ve developed over this past year and a half of confusion and bewilderment. Aaron will be debuting several new songs, including tracks from his upcoming three-song EP “Sunrise,” set to release December 3. Come with something to leave behind.

  • Crosstown Arthouse presents Blood and Black Lace

    Crosstown Theater 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    If you loved Last Night in Soho, come to the Crosstown Theater to catch Blood and Black Lace! From AGFA: Before Dario Argento’s Deep Red, there was Mario Bava’s Blood and Black Lace. At the Cristiana Haute Couture fashion house, models and their boyfriends excel at the art of backstabbing, blackmail, and snorting cocaine. That is, until a faceless maniac embarks on a mission of death! After the one-two punch of Black Sunday and Black Sabbath, Mario Bava unleashed Blood and Black Lace — the movie that perfected the ultra-violent sub-genre that would come to be known as “giallo.” With a mood that mashes together the elegance of a quiet rain on a summer night with the luridness of a trashy paperback, it’s no wonder why Martin Scorsese once referred to this movie as “an incredible moment for cinema.”

  • Tm. Prudhomme’s “False starts, Fake ending”

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    Come celebrate/mourn the final day of Tm. Prudhomme’s Crosstown Arts’ artist residency! A cavalcade of músicos* will present renditions of compositions old and new. Prepare to be confused and confounded by “songettes,” visual mis-cues, and happenstance! Masks required, diapers optional.

    * Steve Shelley, Tripp Lamkins, Keith Cooper, Dustin Cropps, Andrew Geraci, et al.

    Crosstown Theater 1350 Concourse Ave., Memphis, TN, United States

    Sorry for the inconvenience, but this film is being postponed until further notice.

    A Tree Grows in Brooklyn tells the story of an Irish immigrant family, the Nolans, living out their lives in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn in 1912, about 100 years before Williamsburg got to be the gentrified hell-hole that it currently is. This story takes place when the neighborhood was filled with thousands of first-generation immigrants from all different parts of the world, crammed together in tenements and hustling every day to put food on the table and maybe a little liquor down their gullet! With Dorthy McGuire (Old Yeller, Swiss Family Robinson) as the perpetually pregnant Katie Nolan! Joan Blondell (Glenda in Stay Away, Joe) as sassy Aunt Sissy!! Come out and get in the spirit with us!! A Tree Grows in Brooklyn is a CAN’T MISS!!!

  • The (blank) Dicks present “Come, Christmas! Cumback!”

    Crosstown Arts, The Green Room 1350 Concourse Ave., Suite 280, Memphis, TN, United States

    Fire up the prayer chain and clutch your pearls, because Christmas is coming and so are The (blank) Dicks! After a long medical hiatus (we're not saying who, but someone had an "incident" at the bathhouse that required a full restringing of their guitar, if you know what I mean), your favorite queer country band is back for their first show under a new name, to be revealed for the first time at the show! They'll ruin your favorite holiday songs, unload some special gifts and guests from Santa's big ole sack, and make the yuletide gay, gay, gay, gay, gay. So gather up the family, tell them all to leave you alone and stay home for at least one night for the love of God, and then skip on down to Crosstown for the holiday show you deserve!
