Here’s a sampling of what you have to look forward to this week on the PDD Calendar.

Check out all of the Halloween happenings on the calendar, including Zombie Fest on Friday at the Scottish Rite Auditorium, the Haunted Shack at Buffalo House starting this weekend, and a “Not So Scary” Concert for Kids by the DSSO at Denfeld on Saturday.

When I walk into a planetarium the first thing I think is “drum solo.” Well, maybe not, but apparently that’s what Gene Koshinski thought, cause he’s doing a percussion set at the UMD Planetarium on Tuesday accompanied by a planetarium show.

Katherine Boo, writer for The New Yorker and The Washington Post, talks about poverty in India at Mitchell Auditorium on Wednesday.

Your last chance to visit the Lincoln Park Farmers Market at the Harrison Community Center this season is this Thursday.

In theater news Die Fledermaus, Johan Strauss’ comedic operetta, opens at UMD on Thursday and runs through Sunday, A Wrinkle in Time opens at the Duluth Playhouse on Friday and runs two weekends, and Rubber Chicken is doing the Chicken Hat Plays again this Saturday at the Harbor City Theater in which a team of writers, actors and directors create eight new short plays in 24 hours.

So what are you doing this week? Can we tag along? Any upcoming events that you want to promote? Let us know.
