June 21 2025

8:30 a.m.
The Virginia Zoo 3500 Granby St Norfolk, VA 23504 (757) 441-2374

Virginia Zoo members get to spend extra time at the Zoo with Member Mornings on Saturdays and Sundays from Memorial Day weekend through Labor Day weekend. Members get into the Zoo an hour early when there’s plenty of parking, the weather is cooler, and there’s a better chance of seeing the animals being active and eating their breakfasts!

Members can enter the Zoo between 8:30 – 9:30 am on these weekends. Become a member today to take advantage of this perk!

Perfect Arrangement by Topher Payne at the Generic Theater

July 18 - August 3 2025

8:30 a.m.
Generic Theater 215 St. Paul's Blvd, Norfolk, VA 757-441-2160 Price: Price may vary

It’s 1950, and new colors are being added to the Red Scare. Two U.S. State Department employees, Bob and Norma, have been tasked with identifying sexual deviants within their ranks. There’s just one problem: Both Bob and Norma are gay and have married each other’s partners as a carefully constructed cover. Inspired by the true story of the earliest stirrings of the American gay rights movement, madcap classic sitcom-style laughs give way to provocative drama as two couples are forced to stare down the closet door.
