Last Chance

Catch It or Regret It


Cut It Out

Runs through March 26, Da Vinci Art Alliance, 704 Catharine St., 215-829-0466

This juried multimedia exhibition (pictured) features a host of diverse artists whose work ranges from collages to 3-D art, all united by cutting techniques. Self-proclaimed outlaw artist Carl B. Johnson has fashioned a crucifix out of melted Sunoco, Exxon-Mobil and Texaco credit cards with an American flag draped across its arms.

Andy Prescott: About Face

Runs through March 29, 7:30 p.m., $17, Odette's Theater Room, 274 S. River Road, New Hope, 215-862-3000

It's not often we think about leaving Center City for a more pastoral setting, but Odette's Theater Room in Bucks County provides more than a change of scenery. For one, it's the longest-running cabaret room on the East Coast. Pennsylvania native and Temple grad Andy Prescott—by turns pianist, singer, actor and piano-bar singer—is finishing a run of his one-man comedy show about an obsession with plastic surgery. The only thing scarier to Prescott than a bloody scalpel? His fear of looking like his dad.

A Group Exhibition of Contemporary Artists

Runs through March 31, Newman Galleries, 1625 Walnut St., 215-563-1779

From Karl Dempwolf's Monet-esque impressionism to Katya Held's charming image of Rittenhouse Square, this exhibition spotlights several talented modern painters. Keep an eye out for the works of A.J. Rudisill, stunning hyper-realistic images that seem to emit a glow from the canvas.
