The Weekend 5: DIYpsi, One-Man Circus, Color Vibes & Yo Yo Tricks

DIYpsi Indie Art Fair
DIYpsi is a two-day handmade art fair for the best indie artists in the area. Also expect local food and craft beer. (YUM.) Because this is art you can’t find at Pier-1, you’ll definitely feel good about buying it. Oh, and check out downtown while you’re at it. – JB

Auditions at the Encore
The Encore Musical Theatre Company is hosting auditions for Noises Off, directed by Tobin Hissong. A play by Michael Frayn from 1982, each of the three acts contains performances of the first act of a play-within-a-play. Prepare a funny one-minute monologue as well as a passable headshot and resumé. Break a leg! -ZM

One-Man Circus (L’homme Cirque)
Cirque du Soleil alum David Dimitri is about to wow your trousers off with some high-wire tricks, acrobatics, song AND he fires himself out of a cannon. OUT OF A CANNON. Let’s be real: there are now seven shows with this dude. Ann Arbor Summer Fest’s finale. Grab your tix.

Color Vibe 5K
You might know Holi, the epic color festival in India each spring. (There were a ton of autoplay Facebook videos.) This is kind of like that (i.e. people throwing color dye followed by a festive dance party) except it’s also a 5k race. Just remember to stretch out beforehand. Register now. -SF
