The Colorado Film Showcase
Wed., May 22, 7 p.m.Film
The Independent Film Society of Colorado recently launched a new, free monthly series called The Colorado Film Showcase, focused unsurprisingly on films with a Centennial State connection. (Submissions are encouraged.) Tonight at 7 in the Lon Chaney Theater (221 E. Kiowa St., ifsoc.org), shorts by local high school students will be on display, as selected by area film teachers. Also, filmmaker Sarah Lotfi of Menschen and Last Bogatyr acclaim will screen one of her earlier films, as well as host a Q&A afterward with the student filmmakers. So, get behind the scene, and get behind the lens. — Matthew Schniper

The five members — which include, per their Native American names, Stands With a Grunt and Laughs at Own Jokes — will play Whose Line-style games that are all family-friendly, for $8 to $10 a ticket. Should the Colin Mochrie in you want to learn the ropes, attend an 11 a.m. Improv Workshop today, for $20. All experience levels welcome; contact the group directly at improvcolorado@gmail.com to sign up. — Edie Adelstein
$8-$10An Exquisite Corpse
Through May 25 255-3504Art Exhibits

Heard of the game "Consequences"? Or "Exquisite Corpse"? You have. You and your surrealist friends have folded a piece of paper into segments, and you've each drawn part of a figure, without seeing what everyone else has done. Then you've unfolded it and admired your weird creation. (And probably ate/drank/smoked something mysterious.) No? Well, that game is the conceit behind Senior Show 2013 now at GOCA 1420 (1420 Austin Bluffs Pkwy., galleryuccs.org), wherein upcoming University of Colorado at Colorado Springs graduates (including new Business of Art Center curator/gallery manager Patrick Bohnen) show their stuff. It's free to visit, and up through May 25, Wednesdays through Saturdays. — Edie Adelstein
