So many choices for your weekend activities, so little chance of seeing them all. Here are my picks:
Friday:
Brad Mehldau and Chris Tile at The Theatre at the Ace Hotel (Season opening event for CAP UCLA). Check out my interview with Brad about collaboration elsewhere on these pages)
Avishai Cohen Quartet at the bluewhale (also Saturday night) Check out my interview with Avishai elsewhere on these pages.
Saturday:
Big Night at the Kirk Douglas Theatre (Opening night) a new comedy by Paul Rudnick (“In and Out”)
Amadeus Live at the Valley Performing Arts Center (live accompaniment of Mozart’s beautiful music performed here by the Los Angeles Chamber Orchestra)
Coco Peru’s Taming of the Tension at the Renberg Theater (Saturday and Sunday)
All weekend:
Of course, you can always try to go see a little musical called Hamilton at the Pantages Theatre…if you can get tickets. (If you can, you should. It really is that good.)
