Can bad erotica successfully be made into good theater? Are ball-gags somehow more interesting with the accompaniment of showtunes? Sometimes terrible ideas can be turned into something fantastic. Even skeptics of the 50 Shades of Grey franchise will flirt with the crude humor of 50 Shades! The Musical Parody. Follow a meek book club’s foray into the world of whips, chains and total raunch. Fans of Christian Grey—get ready to blush, and consider family-friendly holiday events officially over.
8pm Saturday January 10. Tickets start at $29. The Valentine Theatre, 410 Adams St.
