There's almost too much great theater happening right now in DFW. From big musical tours like Company and Beetlejuice to local shows about wrestling, the Constitution, and the unusual folks you encounter during late-night grocery runs, there's a lot going on. And this isn't even the end of it: We'll have another round-up that's strictly spooky, coming soon.
