2) If you loved Sex and the City or never watched it but always wanted to, then here’s your chance to witness all six seasons condensed into One Woman Sex and the City, a one-person parody/tribute. Co-creator Kerry Ipema plays Carrie, Samantha, Charlotte, and Miranda. She has worked with co-creator and director TJ Dawe before on PostSecret: The Show. Dawe, for his part, knows his one-person productions, particularly those based on pop culture. He directed and co-created One Man Star Wars Trilogy and One Man Lord of the Rings. There is audience participation, so it may behoove you to watch (or rewatch) some key episodes, such as the one with the naked dress or the whole “he’s-just-not-that-into-you” installment. This touring show makes its stop at the August Wilson Center tonight only with performances at 7 and 9 p.m. 980 Liberty Ave., Cultural District, (CM)
