An Adult Evening of Shel Silverstein

It’s a series of very dark comedic scenes on topics of general human angst: sex, language, sex, privacy, sex, promises and sex. Shel Silverstein wrote a lot of nasty songs and funny material when he wasn’t doing children’s books; under the direction of Benjamin T. Ismail, Resurrection Theatre provides its giggly due. Adults only. Th, F, Sa 8pm; Su 2pm. Through 5/29. $10-$15. Resurrection Theatre at the Wilkerson Theatre in the California Stage complex, 1723 25th St.; (916) 838-0618; www.resurrectiontheatre.com.
