1) Texture Contemporary Ballet has made its mark in the Pittsburgh arts scene by creating original, modern ballets. The company comes to the stage this month with a program of short pieces titled In the Light. One of the new entries, a yet-untitled ballet by Artistic Director Alan Obuzor, uses dramatic lighting effects to augment the dance. See In the Light at the New Hazlett Theater, 6 Allegheny Square East, North Side. (M.V.)

2) David Kaye’s ‘How the Eggnog Ruined Christmas‘ promises treasured tales of yuletide family dysfunction. It’s onstage tonight and tomorrow night at Carnegie Stage. 8 p.m. 25 W.. Main St., Carnegie.
