Friday, November 20 at Marygrove Theater, Detroit
In a world ruled by spell-check, spelling bees still manage to maintain a sort of sadistic allure — watching kids at the height of awkward adolescence suffering through scrutiny and competition is apparently endlessly fascinating. But this Tony Award-winning musical turns a kind eye to the absurdities of this enduring tradition, presenting stereotypes of the spelling circuit — the fiercely competitive returning champ, the lisping overachiever, the hapless fat kid, and the overly enthusiastic adults who facilitate it all — with both humor and empathy. At 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 2 p.m. Sundays through Nov. 22, at Marygrove Theatre, 8425 W. McNichols Rd., Detroit; 313-993-3270, theatre.udmercy.edu. Those audience members interested in showing off spelling chops should arrive 30 minutes early to sign up for a chance to participate in the production as spelling bee contestants. [more]

This 10,000-square-foot touring exhibition features 36 men, women and children who naturally mummified in their crypts more than 100 years ago in Guanajuato, Mexico. The exhibit not only details the modern forensic technology used to analyze the mummification process, but also describes what the mummies' lives would've been like (this includes facial reconstructions by a forensic artist), as well as the way they inform the city's contemporary culture. Talk about scary! This is the first time that the mummies, which are on loan from the Museo de las Momias de Guanajuato, will be seen outside of Mexico. Detroit is the first stop on the tour, which kicks off Friday with the Gran Noche de Estreno World Debut, a VIP preview event featuring the former president of Mexico, Vicente Fox. Tickets are $125 per person and $200 per couple. The rest of us poor slobs can pay the regular price of $24.95 starting Saturday at the Detroit Science Center, 5020 John R, Detroit; 313-577-8400; info at detroitsciencecenter.org and accidentalmummies.com.
