'The Musical of Musicals (The Musical!)' 'The Musical of Musicals (The Musical!)': This hilarious love letter to musical theater, smartly written by Eric Rockwell and Joanne Bogart, is a comic satire of musical genres. It's structured into five acts, each parodying American and British musical theater styles and all dealing with the classic melodramatic plot: "I can't pay the rent!" The show opens Thursday, April 9, and runs through May 17 at the Oregon Cabaret Theatre, First and Hargadine streets, Ashland. Curtain is at 8 p.m., 1 p.m. for Saturday and Sunday matinees.

The feature will be "Gremlins 2: The New Batch." It's a satire of a sequel and a box office failure to the tune of $50 million. When the gremlins take over a New York City skyscraper owned by an evil tycoon, insane action like that of a Warner Brothers cartoon about genetic engineering ensues. Look for unexpected cameos and plot twists. Hysterical short films, including the 1943 Merrie Melodies cartoon that introduced the gremlin, also will be shown. Visitors should bring a dish to share for the potluck dinner at 6 p.m. Bring bad DVDs, videotapes or books to exchange or give away. Use the entrance to the Elk Lodge that is on Will Dodge Way, between East Main Street and Lithia Way. Admission is $4; parking is free. See www.badfilmsociety.org .
