The last weekend of March is going out like a lion, with special music, dance and theater performances roaring across local stages. And yes, you can also eat lots of pozole. For free activities, see "Five Things to Do for Free in Denver This Week" as well as the latest Art Attack.

Now keep reading for six events worth the price of admission:

Seven Falls
Sunday, March 26, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
South Cheyenne Canyon Park, Colorado Springs (park at 1045 Lower Gold Camp Road for shuttle)

Ready for a road trip? Seven Falls, now part of the Broadmoor, opened for its 140th season on March 24 (after a week-long weather delay). The historic attraction is known for its beautiful waterfalls, stunning vistas, striking canyon rock formations and wildlife; the 1858 Food Truck will offer sustenance this year. (The restaurant reopens April 7.) For tickets and more information, go to sevenfalls.com.

Sommer Browning, Good Actors
Sunday, March 26, 7 p.m.
Buntport Theater, 717 Lipan Street
Sommer Browning dips her toes into a multitude of creative practices, and she'll put more than one to work in Good Actors, a one-woman reading/monologue/performance based on her poetry volume of the same name. It promises to be funny and relatable, examining the ordinary challenges a single mother might experience in life. Filmmaker Kelly Sears adds bold animation to Browning’s presentation, riffing on the book’s text. Remaining true to Buntport Theater’s practice of offering pay-what-you-can admission, admission ranges from free to a suggested donation of $20. Learn more here.

Savoy Denver, 2700 Arapahoe Street

Meet Lady Macbeth as you’ve never seen her before at Local Theater’s original Macbeth adaptation, Undone: The Lady M Project, a collaboration between Hadley Kamminga-Peck, Anne Penner and Mare Trevathan. You don’t have to be knowledgeable about Shakespearean lore to know what’s going on, but you will be expected to play the game when conniving Lady M is judged in court and the audience, including you, forms the jury. There will be pre-show Shakespeare trivia before the Thursday and Saturday shows, and a talkback after Friday's. Tickets are $40 here.

Rolling the giant story dice to determine their storytelling theme, contestants have six minutes to sway the audience in their favor. Scoring is judged on adherence to theme, story quality and overall enjoyment, but ultimately the audience comes away the winner. Tickets are $10 in advance, $15 at the door; get them here.
