The romantic comedy Shall We Dance? is filled with megawatt stars, including Jennifer Lopez, Richard Gere and Susan Sarandon, who play a dance teacher, a lonely lawyer and his wife, respectively. The supporting roles are brilliantly played by Bobby Cannavale, Omar Miller and Stanley Tucci. When the bored lawyer decides to take ballroom lessons, he doesn't count on the dance teacher being a babe or his wife being a shrew determined to discover the reason for his frequent absences. United by their universal lack of grace, the classmates become a sort of family. With their support, the lawyer realizes that, just as with dancing, he has to put in a concentrated effort if he wants his marriage to succeed. The feel-good comedy culminates with the entire cast in a ritzy dance contest with everyone well on the way to their happily-ever-after endings. 7:30 p.m. Discovery Green, 1500 McKinney. For information, visit www.discoverygreen.com or call 713-400-7336. Free.
Sat., Nov. 20, 7:30 p.m., 2010
