why future generations turned out the way they did. The show's choreographer, Shana Perkins, provided the inspiration for this collaborative theatrical performance: It's based on her mother's book The Complete Book of Etiquette, a hand guide to proper manners (pronounced pro-pah mah-nahs). The show features artistic endeavors including theater, dance, art, music, recorded video and a live jazz combo. This special performance is a fundraiser for All Out Repertory Company. Visit alloutrep.org for more info. 8 p.m. Thurs., June 11, The RITZ Ybor, 1503 E 7th Ave., Tampa, $20, $10 students at the door.
Sometimes I get to feeling sorry for myself — I don't even have cable TV, after all — and then The Florida Holocaust Museum hosts Sophal Lang Stagg, a survivor of the Cambodian Genocide, and I feel like a twerp. Stagg shares her story of survival and the charity work she and her husband are currently doing in Cambodia. 7-8 p.m., Thu., June 11, Florida Holocaust Museum, 55 Fifth St. S., St. Petersburg, $15 general; free to museum members, 727-820-0100, flholocaustmuseum.org.
