Three Stooges Night

Comedy styles change with time, but one thing remains constant: The tightly choreographed mayhem of the Three Stooges will forever be popular with a select group of people. (They're called "men.") Larry, Curly, Moe (and occasionally Shemp) never fail; all they need are a simple set-up (they're plumbers, they're actors, they're spies) and they're off. Although the trio is famous for their violence, they also display verbal dexterity and musical talent -- they had it all. Three Stooges Night at Schlafly Bottleworks (7260 Southwest Boulevard, Maplewood; www.schlafly.com) features five great Stooges shorts projected from 16mm film and free admission, with beer and food available for purchase. You can catch them from 7 to 9 p.m. on the second Monday of the month.
