Weekday events, 1/29-1/31:

I'm bringing the work week listings back this week because there are several big name concerts happening on Wednesday and Thursday. 

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tuesday 1/29:

• Opening week of The Producers at the New Candlelight Dinner Theatre in Arden.  It runs through mid-March. $33-$56. http://nctstage.org/home.html
• Purity Ring and Young Magic at Union Transfer.  $17.
• Frances Quinlan, frontwoman of the band Hop Along, at PhilaMOCA.  Following her set will be a screening of a 1950s Federico Fellini film (the organizers are being coy about which film it is, but hints suggest it's La Strada).   PhilaMOCA stands for Mausoleum of Contemporary Art and is basically a small DIY warehouse that used to be a headstone showroom, in the loft district in north Center City. Go to Prohibition Taproom across the street beforehand - great beer selection - although PhilaMOCA usually sells cheap cans of PBR. $5, 7:30pm
