FASHION: Forget the Bryant Park tents, this weekend Brooklyn owns the fashion world. Brooklyn Underground Fashion Rocks! is a full weekend filled with looks from emerging Williamsburg fashion designers. The festivities kick off early tonight with a live performance by the Rozz Nash Band, a VIP cocktail open bar and, of course, a whole lotta fashion. By 8 p.m. you'll be at the VIP after-party at the Northside Pier, with a whole new outlook on high-waisted jeans.

Friday - Sunday // 5 p.m. // Northside Piers [4 North 5th St, Williamsburg] // Free

READING: Spend the evening with author/poet/activist Janice Erlbaum at Bluestockings Bookstore. Erlbaum, former BUST Magazine columnist, is celebrating her latest book, Have You Found Her, which hit bookshelves last month. The book examines "mentorship and friendship; love and deception; and the bonds between women."

Friday // 7 p.m. // Bluestockings [172 Allen St] // Free

ART: Though work in the Whitney Biennial will be on view at the museum through June 1st, this weekend is your last chance to explore the Park Avenue Armory, where a crowd of performance, film and installation artists have taken over the vast, decaying space. At 2 p.m., Fritz Haeg and a team of dancers lead an audience of children and adults in choreographed animal movements based on the animals represented in his installation in the Whitney’s sculpture court. Other happenings on Saturday include 24 hours of “apocalyptic” films in two screening rooms, After the Ends and Before the Beginning: Yet Another 24 Hour Cold War Slumber Party, the work of Walead Beshty. – John Del Signore

Saturday // 12 p.m. // Park Avenue Armory [643 Park Ave at 67th St] // Free

MUSIC: Salt & Samovar have returned from a whirlwind trip to Austin and are hopping right back on stage in Brooklyn this weekend. Check them out at Southpaw, playing just before Lucinda Black Bear.

Saturday // 10 p.m. // Southpaw [125 5th Ave, Park Slope] // $

COMEDY: The UCBW crew somehow manages to make the WWE even more hilarious. This weekend they bring their big event to UCB: Wrestleslamania. It's one of the rare occasions in which we find ourselves cheering on Con Edison (aka Constantine and Uncle Eddie).

Saturday // Midnight // UCB Theater [307 W 26th St] // $5

THEATER: The titular ingénue in Kneehigh Theatre’s wild new riff on Rapunzel not only has dreadlocks instead of long, blonde hair, but she also has the nerve to defy fairy tale archetypes and assert herself to the max. Like the best of Jim Henson, this Rapunzel is appropriate for kids but proves a stimulating romp for all ages, with a kaleidoscopic array of puppetry, comedy, animation and live music. – John Del Signore

Sunday // 3 p.m. // The New Victory Theater [29 West 42nd St] // Ticket prices vary

MOVIE: Make Sunday a movie day with Love Songs (Les Chansons d'amour), described as "a musical interpretation of three lovers living in Paris." Or as NYMag's David Edelstein described it: "an unsatisfactory ménage à trois (it’s two dishy girls getting it on, one Jewish guy unexpectedly left out)..."

Various Times // Paris Theatre [4 West 58th St] and IFC Theater [323 Sixth Ave] // $11.50
