DON’T MISS
“Misalliance” George Bernard Shaw bucks convention as only he can in this comedy about a young woman looking for a way to break from societal strictures and a lackluster potential marriage. // Wednesday through Oct. 24. Olney Theatre Center, 2001 Olney-Sandy Spring Rd., Olney. 301-924-3400. www.
olneytheatre.org. $26-$54.
“Sabrina Fair”
Samuel A. Taylor’s Broadway play has had no shortage of remakes, from Billy Wilder’s 1954 fi lm
starring Audrey Hepburn to Sydney Pollack’s 1995 incarnation with Harrison Ford and Julia Ormond. But Ford’s Theatre is breathing new life into the Cinderella story about a chauffeur’s daughter who leaves for Paris a gangly girl and returns a lovely lady with a sudden surplus of suitors. In this version, Sabrina is played by black actress Susan Heyward, turning a story about social status into one about race, as well. // Friday through Oct. 24. Ford’s Theatre, 511 10th St. NW. 202-347-4833.

MUST HAVE WINGS: Football season is fi nally here. I have made it my goal this season to sample the very best bar food D.C. has to offer, especially wings. Right now, I’m count- ing down the minutes until I get my fi rst order of buffalo wings from Rhino dur- ing the fi rst Penn State game. Gurus, is there anywhere in the District that can beat Rhino’s wings? JUSTIN RUDE: This is a popular answer but one I have a hard time arguing with: Duffy’s.

Today’s Native Americans
The National Museum of the American Indian is chockablock with history. Archaeological and ethnographic artifacts (arrowheads, etc.) make up 98 percent of the collection. But a new exhibition of contemporary art from the museum’s vaults might change people’s perceptions. “Vantage Point: The Contemporary Native Art Collection” includes paintings and drawings, photographs, video and installation art that address themes and experiences important to today’s native peoples. // Through Aug. 7. National Museum of the American Indian, Fourth Street SW and Independence Avenue SW. 202-633-1000.
