I spend more time than I expected to this weekend soaking up Gen Con–including a performance of “Video Games Live” with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra. More on the concert–and some great family board games I discovered–in this week’s print column….
For me, the weekend was bookended with a Friday trip to Bloomington to see singer Maureen McGovern backed by IU musicians and a Sunday run to Beef & Boards for the opening of The “Producers.”
What did you see, hear, read…
This weekend, family commitments kept me out of the arts loop–although I did find time to take some sports-crazy out-of-towners through the National Art Museum of Sport and my in-laws to the “To Live Forever” show at the Indianapolis Museum…
You have to love an Indianapolis weekend when it’s impossible to get to everything you want to see.
While I caught Allalike Productions’ “bare,” Theatre on the Square’s remarkable “A Very Merry Unauthorized Children’s Scientology Pageant,” ShadowApe’s “Transformations” and ACT’s young…
So how was your weekend? Did you go through some “Transformations” with ShadowApe Theatre? Take a trip down the yellow brick robe to see “The Wiz”? Take in a Black Expo Summer Celebration concert? Check out Chakaia Booker’s downtown artwork?…
So did you catch DK’s Gershwin show? Do the Time Warp again with the rest of the “Rocky Horror” fans at the Indianapolis Museum of Art? Or catch the young adult production of “Once on this Island” at Footlite?
Whatever your…
It was a long weekend. Surely you found some entertainment beyond the barbecue.
Like me, did you take the opportunity to visit with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra at Conner Prairie…on with the Sanders Family in “Smoke on the Mountain: Homecoming”…
So did you visit the “On the Road” scroll at the IMA? Swing to “Swing” at American Cabaret Theatre? Try to understand the great Joe Cocker at Verizon Wireless Music Center?
Let us know what A&E you experienced this weekend.
For me, much…
Okay, so what did I miss?
Anyone visit the ISO on the Prairie, shop at the Eiteljorg’s Indian Market, participate in the 48 Hour Film Project or stop in at the Florie Leviton show at the Indianapolis Art Center?
What A&E encounters did you…
Since I’m out of town, I had to miss the Tuesday IBJ Night at the Movies preview of “Get Smart.” So if you were there, enlighten me. What did I miss?
A busy weekend for me included spending quality time with “Some Men” at the Phoenix Theatre, an afternoon visit to the Indy Jazz Fest, finally getting to see “Iron Man” at the movies, a trip to Bollywood courtesy of the Gregory…
Welcome to Monday.
I hope your weekend was a satisfying one. Mine included trips to Buck Creek Players to see the musical “Honk!” (where my son slept during the second act) and to Tibbs Drive-in (where my son slept through the…
I wish I had more to report from the weekend, but I was under the weather and didn’t get to take advantage of Indy’s offerings.
If nothing else, I had hoped to get out to The Jazz Kitchen for Sunday night’s…
For me, the weekend included a local premier at Theatre on the Square, a popular revival at Beef & Boards and a mix of old and new with Dance Kaleidoscope. Plus a stroll through the Broad Ripple…
It was a low-key weekend for me, with my only arts stop being a visit to Fountain Square for Primary Colours’ Allotropy event–which I may get to in a later blog.
Okay, I also watched “Lucky You,” the terrible Drew Barrymore/Eric Bana poker romance…
So I’ve been away from town for a few days and had to skip the weekend arts and entertainment activity in Indy.
So what did I miss?
Were you at Clowes Hall for Indianapolis Opera’s “Tales of Hoffman”? Catch the new comic…
So who caught the IBJ Night at the Movies screening of “Young @ Heart”?
And what did you think?
For me, it was a whirlwind of a weekend, especially if you start with Thursday (OK, so I’m still a college student at heart).
I started with a road trip to Louisville to catch the national tour of “Avenue Q,” found…
For me, the weekend included the second half of the James Still double bill at Indiana Repertory Theatre and a run to Purdue University for an exhilerating student production of “Hair” (a midnight show, no less).
And you?
Did you catch the…
So what did you do this weekend? Hear the Earth Harp at the IMA or the slew of country stars at the Fairgrounds? Discover “Black Gold” at the Phoenix?
My weekend included the national tour of “Forbidden Broadway” at Clowes Hall,…
