Ballet of the Dolls Does Barbarella

You have only a couple more nights to catch the Ballet of the Dolls rendition of Barbarella — the comic book, turned Jane Fonda sci-fi movie, turned Ballet of the Dolls cabaret. While it sticks to the screenplay perhaps a little too much — using actual images and dialog clips from the movie — you should never miss out on this cult classic. And, come on, what better group to interpret it than Ballet of the Dolls. Damn, this is beautiful camp.

Watch a video clip of a rehearsal from a couple weeks ago. It’s long, but it tells you everything you need to know without spoiling the show.

Saturday at 8 p.m., Sunday at 2 p.m., Ritz Theater, 345 13th Ave. NE, Minneapolis; 612-436-1129; $27, $20.
