About Face Theater Company put on its third annual Flip Flop event—one of the organization’s biggest annual fundraisers—Aug. 24 at Sidetrack, 3349 N. Halsted.

Entertainers began singing some of their favorite ’70s songs with a twist, as male singers sang songs popularized by women and vice versa. “We’ve launched our past two seasons with Flip Flop,” stated About Face’s Artistic Director Bonnie Metzgar. “It’s a great way to get people together and celebrate what’s coming up.” The entertainment included Amy Matheny and Stephen Rader (both of Windy City Queercast), Paul Stovall, Aunt Lola Cabana and many others.
