 "The Outrageous Adventures of Sheldon and Mrs. Levine"

Where: "Art Station" 5384 Manor Drive, Stone Mountain Village 30083. 770-469-1105 

Why Go: Putting the "fun" in "dysfunctional" is the name of the game for this unforgettable play. Sheldon is searching for his mother's happiness, and we are along for the ride as they exchange letters thousands of miles apart — but still too close for comfort. This play is fun for the whole family, but is probably best for older children.

Pricing: $23-$27. Go to the Art Station Website to purchase tickets.

When:  Fridays, 6 p.m.-8 p.m.

Why Go: Your little diva and/or rock-star can sing their little hearts at this coffee shop and more in Lawrenceville. A song inventory of more than 94,000 choices will surely give them something to sing about. This is a great family event to do with friends.

Pricing: $3 minimum purchase.

Where: New London Theatre 2485 Main Street East SW, Snellville, GA 30078. 770-559-1484 

Why Go: Spruce up your weekend by taking your family to the theater. This play is a comedy/musical about a show the "Little Sisters of Hoboken" put on to raise money to bury their sisters accidently poisoned by the convent cook. A show full of humor and “uplifting” musical numbers, it will be sure to get laughter and smiles from your whole family. Probably best for families with older children.
