CRITICAL MASS WEEKEND OMNIBUS: We <3 You Dad Weekend

From World's Largest

Friday: Prepare to get down and dirty at Transfags, a night of explosive "genderfuct" poetry. Listen to Philly's best poets bring a fresh new look to transexuality. If lusty poetry ain't your thing, check out the free screening of Amy C. Elliot and Elizabeth Donius's new documentary World's Largest. The film explores American small towns that host the world's largest whatevers. Saturday: This weekend is all about Dad, and what better way to show a lil' appreciation than a hearty cheesesteak? The Father's Day Cheesesteak Tour at Reading Terminal Market includes free samples and a history lesson on the famous sandwich, led by steak-pert (and CP's copy editrix) Carolyn Wyman. But if pop's gotta watch his weight, take him to see Danzig tonight at the Troc where he'll sweat out all of those cheesesteaks in the pit. Just don't tell mama how hard he rocked out to "Mother." Sunday: Treat you dad to the theater today with the PA Shakespeare Fest's opening play, John Millington Synge's classic Playboy of the Western World. It used to cause riots but we promise a calmer experience. Then remind papa bear that you'll always be his little boy/girl by taking him to a screening of Pixar's latest offering, Toy Story 3.
