Few shows reviewed last summer on Washington City Paper’s Fringe & Purge blog received the high praise awarded to Dizzy Miss Lizzie’s Roadside Revue. “Just go already,” said our critic. “Dizzy Miss Lizzie [is] alchemical Fringe rock ‘n’ roll magic [genius], and there’s no reason to miss [it].” Tonight, Dizzy Miss Lizzie reprises its 2012 Fringe hit, The Brontes, at the Kennedy Center’s Theater Lab. The Shear Madness cast and crew has the night off, so the Kennedy Center has invited the home-grown vaudeville troupe over for a much more raucous good time at the expense of classic British literature.

EAT THIS

The reuben is so hot right now. Last week, Y&H took a look at the classic sandwich and the various ways chefs are reinterpreting it. Today, we suggest you do your own research by testing one out yourself. Among our favorites is the reuben at DGS Delicatessen. It’s made with both corned beef and pastrami, which are brined for a week and sliced thick by hand, then combined with Emmenthaler cheese, sauerkraut, and a Russian dressing made with pickle brine. (There’s also an eggplant version.) Another favorite is A&D‘s reuben made with beef tongue that’s brined for 28 days and slow cooked for eight hours. Check out our full roundup (including knish and pasta version of the reuben) here. (Jessica Sidman)
