Red, White, and Doo: 'Spooky Dog and the Teenage-Gang Mysteries'

Spooky DogFRIDAY: If fireworks, American flags and some watermelon isn't the trick for a Fourth of July evening, then how about a van full of seemingly parentless and sexually-conflicted teenagers who occasionally solve a mystery or two? Finishing its run on July 3 and 4 is "Spooky Dog and the Teenage-Gang Mysteries" at the D.C. Arts Center.

The show is an amalgam of Saturday morning cartoon parodies and particularly follows an all-too-familiar crew of crime-solving do-gooders on an adventure that is a bit of a departure from their campy '70s hijinks. Though the name may imply that the well-loved gang is back up to its old shenanigans, the show is strictly for adults. There's singing, laughter and a confirmation for any sneaking suspicions as to why a grown man is constantly eating puppy snacks.

» DCAC, 2438 18th St. NW; Fri. and Sat., July 3 and 4, 7:30 p.m.,$18; 202-462-7833.
