This is one of those weekends that has a little bit of everything.
There’s theatre, like Theatresquared’s Every Brilliant Thing that folks have been raving about for a few weeks playing at Nadine Baum. And University Theatre is performing the Shakespeare play Macbeth this weekend as well at UA Global Campus.
There’s comedy, with comedian Kevin Bozeman at the UA’s Union Theatre. Bozeman was a semi-finalist on NBC’s “Last Comic Standing” in 2015, and has appeared on Comedy Central, NBC, CBS and Fox.
There’s a ton of music this weekend too, with locals 1oz Jig making booties shake at Smoke & Barrel Friday night, locals Goose playing George’s, and a three band bill at Nomad’s with Lawrence Jamal, Anthony Ball Allstars, and Merkey.
