Pretty Ladies
Find out who’s sleeping with whom and who’s mad about it when The L Word, Showtime’s sexy lesbian soap opera, resumes tonight. Don’t fret if your only friend with cable is out of town. Kansas City’s Human Rights Campaign is bringing the season premiere to the big screen — the Screenland Granada at 1015 Minnesota in Kansas City, Kansas, that is.Your $10 donation to the largest civil rights organization that is focused on LGBT issues also includes a screening of last season’s finale. And, thanks to generous old LGBT-supporting Showtime: “When they leave,” event chairwoman Christene Main says, “we’ll send them home with the second episode.” The fundraiser’s festivities also include three musical performers, a raffle and a silent auction. “It’s just a way to come and hang out with your friends and have fun and see some pretty ladies and meet lots of new people,” Main adds. More than 200 people have RSVP’d, including a busload coming from Omaha. RSVPs don’t guarantee a spot, so get there early. Doors open at 4 p.m. Contact lword@hrc.org for information.
