"3D FILM FESTIVAL." Paris Hilton in House of Wax is, in more ways than one, a strictly two-dimensional experience. But it’s proved a good excuse for the Coolidge Corner Theatre to drag out the tinted paper specs for a few reels of classic (and not so classic) 1950s films that jump off the screen. There’s the original Vincent Price House of Wax (June 10 and 14) and his lesser-known The Mad Magician (June 14), Hitchcock’s Dial M for Murder (June 11 and 13), and Cole Porter’s Kiss Me Kate (June 12). There’s also a pair of drive-in specials, It Came from Outer Space and Creature from the Black Lagoon (both June 16), and Gorilla at Large and the Rita Hayworth picture Miss Sadie Thompson (both June 15). And on June 11 and 12, a program of "3-D Shorts" offers rare reels including Bugs Bunny and the Three Stooges. That’s June 10 through 16, and the Coolidge is at 290 Harvard Street in Brookline; call (617) 734-2500. "THE TRADITION." The FleetCenter’s annual gala honoring local sports legends pays tribute to Boston-bred "Miracle on Ice" teammates Mike Eruzione, Jim Craig, Jack O’Callahan, and Dave Silk; the Celtics’ Bob Cousy; the Bruins’ Terry O’Reilly; former world welterweight champ Tony "The Flaming Fury" DeMarco; TV gal Lesley Visser; and, in a nod to the loose theme of local miracle workers, the ownership of the Red Sox. That’s June 21 at the FleetCenter, and tickets are $150 and $250; call (617) 931-2000. SAVION GLOVER. The world’s greatest tap dancer puts himself in context later this month at Jacob’s Pillow, where he’ll appear with his mentors, Dianne Walker and Jimmy Slyde, as well as with three of his own protégés. That’s June 21 through 26 at the Pillow’s Ted Shawn Theatre in Becket. Tickets are $55; call (413) 243-0745.
