- Crazy4Cult 2 | Friday, August 22, 2008 | 7:00 - 11:00 pm | Free | Gallery 1988 - Map | If you’ve been to a fair share of “Rocky Horror” midnight screenings, or find joy in referencing obscure quotes to any who will listen (”Just wait until those dead babies start marching [...]!”), your tastes will wholly embrace this event. Works in the realm of cross-hybrid film art will be showcased by over 100 artists (click here for a full list). And if your closeted fanatic is able to name all the icons in this poster, it will be yours - signed by Kevin Smith (co-hosting the event with Scott Mosier) and the artist, Andrew Wilson. For more info, call (323) 937-7088.
NETWORKING
- Rooftop Networking Mixer | Friday, August 22, 2008 | 8:00 pm | $10.00 | Blue Velvet Restaurant - Map | Sadly, it is considered normal to work more than one sleeps - meaning that when thrust into a social situation, one can’t help but talk about work. So Professionals in the City is extending an invite to - you guessed it - professionals from all backgrounds in an attempt to reveal the personality that lies beneath endless paperwork and 9-5 pressure. For more info, call (202) 686-5990.
MUSIC FESTIVAL
- Fresh Squeezed Festival ‘08 | Saturday, August 23, 2008 | 7:00 pm | $40.00 | Shrine Auditorium - Map | We all couldn’t make it to Coachella this year, but thankfully it’s not the only music festival around. The Fresh Squeezed Festival will serve up nine straight hours of nothing but music - a veritable dancing ground for trance, techno, house, psytrance, and electro enthusiasts. For tickets, click here or call 1-877-71-GROOVE.
FILM
- Fight Club | Saturday, August, 23, 2008 | 7:30 pm | $10.00 | Angel City Drive-In - Map | Okay, seriously - a viewing of one of the trippiest movies in the world in drive-in movie format is worth a couple of hours out of your weekend. You guys?! I didn’t know drive-in movies were still around outside of film nostalgia (my last viewing being in ‘91). I am wriggling in my seat just thinking about this. Click for tickets.
THEATER
- Shakespeare in the Park | through Sunday, August 24, 2008 | 7:30 pm | Free | Barnsdall Park - Map | “Henry IV” and “Doctor Faustus” will be available in an outdoor setting a la the days and likely venues in which they were originally penned and performed. Actors will be presented in their purest form - without edit or special effects. It doesn’t get more authentic than that. For reservations, email boxoffice@independentshakespeare.com or call (323) 836-0288.
