We look ahead at the week's best concerts, comedy shows, dinners, art shows and more.

Monday

Hot Tub
The Virgil, 8pm, $5

Kristen Schaal and Kurt Braunohler—two of our favorite comedians separately, and simply a joy together—host their variety show, Hot Tub, every Monday night at the Virgil.

The Improvised Shakespeare Company
Largo, 8pm, $30 

The actors (including Thomas Middleditch) speak in faux British accents and play up any number of Shakespearean tropes, yet this hugely popular show is anything but gimmicky. Good improv rises above.

Tuesday

Constellations
Geffen Playhouse, $32–$84

A beekeeper and a quantum physicist fall in love in this play about moments that can change our lives.

Put Your Hands Together

Wednesday

Last Remaining Seats
Million Dollar Theater, 8pm, $22

Take in a screening of the 1944 noir Laura in a handsome Downtown movie palace at this L.A. Conservancy fundraiser.

Wine Wednesday at Everson Royce Bar
E.R.B., 5–8pm, $25

Wind down with a flight of three wines and a culinary creation at the Arts District bar.

Thursday

American Horror Story: The Style of Scare
Paley Center for Media, noon–5pm, free

Get creeped out with a visually stunning assortment of costumes, set pieces and props from every season of the chilling anthology series.

The Book of Mormon
Pantages Theatre, 8pm, $54.75-$175.50

Slip into a spooky Mormon hell dream as the outrageously funny musical returns to Hollywood.

Friday 

Sci-Fi at Union Station: Her screening

Watch the slick Spike Jonze flick from inside of Union Station's handsome ticketing hall.

Friday Night Wine Tastings
Barnsdall Art Park, 5:30pm, $35

Roll out a blanket and sip on pours of wine on the Hollyhock House's front lawn at this summer series kickoff.

First Fridays at the Natural History Museum

Dance among the dinosaurs at this seasonal finale of the monthly party and lecture series.

Constitution Happy Hour
Hammer Museum, 6pm, free to attend, $5 drinks
