1. Karen O and company take the Aragon stage tonight as the Yeah Yeah Yeahs mark the 15th anniversary of their debut album, Fever to Tell. In lieu of an opening act, the all-ages, general admission show kicks off at 7:30pm with a screening of the tour documentary, There is No Modern Romance.

2. A hyper-faithful live rendition of the 1987 movie, Dirty Dancing—The Classic Story On Stage premiered in Australia in 2004, and it’s just been kind of perpetually on tour ever since—nobody puts this baby in the corner. The North American touring company returns to the Cadillac Palace Theatre tonight for a weeklong time of your life. Tonight’s performance is at 7:30pm, and tickets start at $18.

3. Saturday Night Live alum Julia Sweeney has been exercising some new comedy muscles on the Second City’s e.t.c. stage over the past month, performing her first stand-up show, Julia Sweeney: Older and Wider. Sweeney ends her run for now with two shows tonight and tomorrow at 8pm; tickets are $26.

For more events, check in with Time Out throughout the day.
