Do you like jazz? How about lights? There’s a lot of both this week. Not a bad thing. And Shakespeare is plentiful, if that’s your gig. The CSO performs an interesting operatic version of “Hamlet”, fully staged and designed by Paris’ famed Opéra Comique while Xavier stages “Twelfth Night.” Enjoy.
This week encompasses the full spectrum, from cultural events about our history to contemporary dance, from al fresco art and music to a trio of film events (one celebrating the outdoors), two powerful examples of Iranian artists standing up to fundamentalist oppression, an exploration of what financially divides us, new and traditional theater, art from around the nation, plus with a variety of music that illustrates our shared humanity. There’s a lot to take in.

It feels autumnal outside, but it’s still pretty startling to realize that October is already winding to its hallowed end. No surprise, then, that there’s plenty of spooky stuff afoot – and a potent potable to help you through it. Curious? Forge ahead.
Now that we’ve been reminded that the thermometer does register above 32, it’s time to crawl out from under our blankets and see what’s going on in the area. As it turns out, there’s quite a lot. Here are a few highlights…
