If an art forger has luck on his side, the world will never know his name, ambitions or abilities. Five of the most successful, captured and disgraced, however, are the subjects of an exhibit opening this month at the Oklahoma City Museum of Art, 415 Couch Drive, in Oklahoma City. Intent to Deceive: Fakes and Forgeries in the Art World will display more than 55 works by both original artists (including Matisse, Picasso and Daumier) and the forgers who copied them. The painting of a Girl With a Pearl Earring in the collection isn’t the famous 17th-century masterpiece of Johannes Vermeer. It was brilliantly and publicly created “in the style of” Vermeer in 2012 by former art forger John Myatt, who made a few hundred fakes back in the day and sold them into the art market as genuine. Intent to Deceive also looks at the “careers” of Han van Meegeren, Elmyr de Hory, Eric Hebborn and Mark Landis by exhibiting their personal effects along with the materials they used to deceive. The show opens Saturday, Feb. 14. For more, visit www.okcmoa.com.

It will take more than 2,000 man hours to put on this super-charged show, not to mention the 7,500 tons of dirt that will be poured onto the Chesapeake Energy Arena floor, making up the stage for these rather large trucks – a mere 12 feet tall and 12 feet wide. The arena will light up with explosions and fill with cheers from the crowd as they root on their favorite trucks. Audiences will see tricks, flips, wheelies, rollovers and other wowing stunts. The drivers are masters at maneuvering these huge vehicles, and plenty of jaws are sure to drop during both shows. Watch as monster trucks demolish the 25 crush cars and 4 crush vans or buses needed to put on the show – those only a junkyard will take when it’s all over. Get to the show early for the Party in the Pits and meet the drivers and get their autographs, while getting an up close look at the towering trucks. Monster Jam will be in Oklahoma City for two days. You can see the excitement on Feb. 14 at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m., and Feb. 15 at 2 p.m. For more information, visit www.chesapeakearena.com.

Chicago, the musical, is a recreation of the 1926 play of the same name written by reporter Maurine Dallas Watkins, who sat in on the trials of the two women the musical’s main characters, Velma and Roxie, are based on. Velma, a nightclub star, and Roxie, a chorus girl, find themselves locked up after committing murderous deeds. Watch this satire on celebrity criminals – a villainous, yet delightful story – unravel on stage through music and dance as Velma, with the help of lawyer Billy Flynn, turns her jail stint into a media frenzy. And don’t worry: Roxie has some surprises in store for the audience, too. Theatre Tulsa brings the music and lyrics of Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse to the Tulsa Performing Arts Center stage Feb. 13 through Feb. 22. You won’t want to miss this world-renowned musical filled with sass, wit, dance and music. Musical numbers including “All That Jazz,” “Cell Block Tango” and “Razzle Dazzle” are sure to stir up some trouble and excitement on stage. Enjoy Blythe Nelson as Roxie, Sara Wilemon as Velma, Scott Gaffen as Billy Flynn, David Blackely as Amos, Sam Briggs as reporter Mary Sunshine and Mettece Mason as Mama Morton.
