In addition to its robust theater lineup, Topanga Canyon’s Will Geer Theatricum Botanicum is also hosting an alfresco salon series each Thursday in October. The lineup of music and performances includes a spotlight on composers and performers who lost their homes in this year’s wildfires (Sept 11), a musical love letter to Broadway composer Kurt Weill (Sept 18) and a cabaret tribute to Joni Mitchell (Sept 25).
If we could write the rules of living in Los Angeles this would be our No. 1, always at the top of our list: When you live in this city, there’s no excuse for boredom just because it’s a weeknight. There are hundreds of things to do in Los Angeles each week, whether you hit the beach at sunset or go for a morning bike ride, or catch a concert or a comedy show—and that’s really only scratching the surface. Well, we don’t make the rules, but we will provide you with plenty of ideas for your next free weeknight right here. Now go out and tackle these things to do in L.A. this week.
We curate an itinerary of the city’s best concerts, culture and cuisine, every week, just for you. This week, SAG-AFTRA performs old-timey radio plays at the Autry, Theatricum Botanicum shines a light on composers who lost their homes in the wildfires, and the city of Santa Monica celebrates its 150th anniversary with free concert Americana in the Park. You can also party with your pup in DTLA, catch the first screenings of the Hola México Film Festival or hear Parisian jazz and sip French wines at Barnsdall Art Park.
