At the Dallas Voice, Arnold Wayne Jones reports that Dallas Theater Center performer Liz Mikel — whom we Q-and-A’d this week about her role in the new musical Get It Up! Give it up! — pretty much lost everything she owns when a fire hit her Lake Highlands condo complex on Greenville Avenue. Liz and her daughter Vershea managed to escape. Plans for a Saturday night benefit are being made. Anyone interested in offering their assistance, check out the message from the Mary Collins Agency that now appears with the full Q&A. A web community has been set up through Lotsa Helping Hands.

Also, Tuckers’ Blues is hosting fundraisers for Liz all weekend long, January 8-10. We mention this here because that’s Guy Reynolds’ photo of Liz performing at Tucker’s.
