(THEATRICAL CABARET) Just one year ago, Troy Mink—beloved Seattle theater-maker and creator of Carlotta's Late-Nite Wing Ding—found himself on the receiving end of a life-extending new kidney. Tonight Mink takes his gratitude public by throwing this local-star-studded extravaganza benefiting Northwest Kidney Centers. Hosted by the mighty Carlotta, Just Kidney! features performances by Go There goddess and Stranger genius Sarah Rudinoff, monologue master Matt Smith, Sgt. Rigsby & His Amazing Silhouettes, and the indescribable musical delights of "Awesome," among others. Theater Off Jackson, 409 Seventh Ave S, 340-1049. 7:30 pm, $12 advance at ticketwindow.com/$15 DOS. DAVID SCHMADER
