The Trust for the National Mall is pleased to invite you to attend a FREE commemorative concert on the 79th Anniversary of the D-Day operation at the Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial! Join in on June 6 from 6 – 7 PM to enjoy a musical performance by an ensemble from the U.S. Army Band “Pershing’s Own” to commemorate this decisive World War II battle which was overseen by General Dwight D. Eisenhower, then the Supreme Allied Commander, Allied Expeditionary Forces.
This event is open and free to the public, and we encourage you to bring guests of all ages! We hope you will join us for this special event commemorating the largest amphibious invasion at the time and to commemorate Eisenhower’s leadership. The Eisenhower Memorial is located at Independence Avenue and 4th St SW, Washington DC.
Please join the Picnic Theatre Company in the beautiful Dumbarton House garden in Georgetown on Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, June 7, 8, 9, for a live play performance and light parody of the award-winning 1976 drama Network, a dark satire of the television news industry. Be transported to another time with music and advertisements from the 1970s!
TICKETS ($18): dumbartonhouse.ticketleap.com/
(Proceeds benefit Dumbarton House museum preservation and education programs.)
In an America beset by inflation, recession, Watergate and Vietnam, a veteran broadcast anchorman channels the populist rage and becomes a national lightning rod. Ambitious network executives and corporate conglomerates take the commercialization of the news to unsettling extremes in pursuit of profits and ratings, but soon find the message and the consequences spinning out of their control. A bitingly prescient commentary on the rise of mass media and its polarizing effects on politics and American life, Network resonates more than ever today.
2715 Q Street NW, Washington, DC (Georgetown)
6pm Cocktails, 7pm Showtime
Bring a blanket for picnic seating. Wine and refreshments are available for purchase. Rain or shine (if rain in Bellevue Ballroom).

Cast:
Sara Cook • Nova Daly • Ali Dukakis • Nihal Krishan • Alexa Newlin • Antonio Olivo • Kevin Rooney • Adam Ruben • Jayne Sandman • Christina Sevilla • Hugo Verges • David White

Awkward Sex… and the City is returning to Black Cat for Pride Month on June 16th at 8 pm!
Awkward Sex… and the City is exactly what it sounds like: storytellers reliving intimate tales about their sex lives and breaking barriers about sex and dating. The show pairs sexual inclusion with humor and sheds light on the awkward universal experience.
“Good sex is always good sex, but it takes a special person to turn bad sex into something amazing. And that’s where our New York comedian and podcaster Natalie Wall comes in.” -Philadelphia Gay News
Awkward Sex is about taking taboo subjects and creating a safe space for all people to feel seen and heard. From cocaine infused one night stands to IBS flare ups during cunnilingus, the audience will be hanging on the performers’ every word and excited to go out and have a sexual misadventure of their own.
Doors at 8:00! Show at 8:30 pm! Tickets $20!
EVERYONE will have a blast at this show. So come on down, grab a drink, and watch New York City’s finest comedic storytellers relive their most embarrassing sexual experiences on stage just for your pleasure.
“The voyeur within will delight.” -Refinery29
