The Georgetown Metropolitan

1200 block of Potomac St.

It’s going to be a rainy weekend. What better time to stay indoors and catch a great play? This Saturday and Sunday the City Kids Theater at the National Conservancy of Dramatic Arts will be finishing its run of the play Cashell Alley Kids Kick it Old School.

It’s a fun play for kids and especially Georgetown kids. The story is all about Georgetown kids and has tons of hyperlocal references. (And, yes, GM himself is a plot point, but that’s not why he’s recommending it!) And it teaches you a lot about Georgetown history too.

So head on over and enjoy the show!
