If you’d rather see a play this weekend, TheatreSquared has you covered with their latest hit, The Elaborate Entrance of Chad Deity. There are a few chances to see it this weekend. Here’s the schedule.

How about some sports? The No. 6 ranked Arkansas softball team is taking on South Carolina for a series at Bogle Park this weekend, kicking off at 6 p.m. on Friday night. They’ve been on fire lately. The Diamond Hogs baseball team is also in town for a show this weekend, taking on the Ole Miss Rebels. That series kicks off at 6:30 p.m. on Friday night.

Also in Saturday daytime fun, there’s a pub crawl you can take your dog to on Dickson Street Saturday night. It’s called The Dickson Street Pup Crawl, and proceeds from the event benefit the Fayetteville Animal Shelter. Hopefully you already have your tickets for this one, as it’s totally sold out.
