Valentine’s Weekend in OKC – Cool Venues to Check Out!

Not only is it Friday the 13th…I love Friday the 13th! (My husband kissed me for the first time on a Friday the 13th many moons ago…) It’s also Valentine’s Weekend! For some people this is just another day, for others it’s “The Dreaded Day” but for many it’s another day to do something sweet with your sweetie or loved ones. So, here are a few sweet ideas to get your weekend going….

The Oklahoma City Ballet will be performing "Paris Rouge" along with the classic white ballet "Les Sylphides".

"Paris Rouge" is a visually stunning, colorful production recreating the famed Paris hot spot and capturing the exuberance of the saucy world of the can-can. Performances will be on February 13th and 14th at the Civic Center.
