Kings of the swing music revival, Big Bad Voodoo Daddy, will bring their rocking mix of jazz, swing, big band and original dance tunes to McLean's Alden Theatre for a single performance, celebrating the music of Cab Calloway, at 8 p.m. on Saturday, March 27. Tickets are $38, $33 for McLean tax district residents. The theatre is located at 1234 Ingleside Avenue.

BBVD original music rocketed the group into stardom, when "You & Me and the Bottle Makes Three (Tonight)" and "Go Daddy-O" were featured in the 1996 indie film Swingers. The group has appeared in over 60 movies and television shows, including "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" and "Live with Regis & Kelly." BBVD wrote, performed and recorded the current theme song for "The Carson Daly Show" after appearing multiple times as the show's house band.

Edwaard Liang’s rendition of the fairy tale at the Washington Ballet is nothing short of a revelation, packed with entrancing choreography throughout all three acts. Here, a classic tale is reinvented to somehow exude even more elegance.
