What’s Happening in Los Angeles

OUT ON A LEDGE: PHOTOGRAPHS OF A COMIC GENIUS FROM
THE HAROLD LLOYD COLLECTION @ Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and
Sciences
Harold Lloyd was a comic genius. You wouldn’t
believe that an average looking man who wore large round glasses would
be the same person that would crash cars, walk on construction girders
and hang off clock towers. Lloyd dazzled movie audiences in the 1920s
with his feats, the most classic of which will be featured in a new
exhibit honoring the man. The exhibit features 100 photographs from
Lloyd’s personal archive of production stills, behind-the-scenes
shots and family photos.
Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences
—Academy Gallery is located at 8949 Wilshire Blvd. in Los
Angeles. For more information visit www.oscars.org

DEATH OF A SALESMAN @ Odyssey Theatre
Since its premiere on Broadway in 1949, Arthur
Miller’s “Death of A Salesman” has been a paramount
for American theater. This crowning achievement looks at how one views
the American Dream, a dream that can crumble easily at any instant. The
name of Willy Loman will be etched into your brain, immediately after
seeing the play. Highly recommended if you haven’t seen it
already. Odyssey Theatre is located at 2055 South Sepulveda Blvd.
in Los Angeles. For more information visit www.odysseytheatre.com

CAT POWER AND THE MEMPHIS RHYTHM BAND @ Orpheum
Theatre
Chan Marshall is the greatest. Otherwise known as
her stage moniker Cat Power, Marshall lives up to the hype due to the
success of her latest album release aptly named The Greatest. Backed by the Memphis
Rhythm Band, a more mature and wider sound trickled out as a result.
History has shown Marshall’s previous solo concert experiences
being how do you say… bizarre, but Saturday’s nights show
will be a different tune as Ms. Marshall will be backed by The Memphis
Rhythm Band. Say goodbye to stage fright. Tickets are available via www.ticketmaster.com. The Orpheum Theatre is located at 842 South Broadway in
Los Angeles.

MASQUERADE: ROLE PLAYING IN SELF-PORTRAITURE @ Los
Angeles County Museum of Art
Thirty works from the LACMA’s permanent
collection were drawn for Masquerade; Role Playing in Self-Portraiture,
an intimate look at how pretending truly reveals who an artist is. In
these portraits, the complete alteration of the subject will give a
better glimpse at the photographer, showcasing his/her fictional self
or in this case for this exhibition alone their “Other
Selves.” LACMA is located at 5905 Wilshire Blvd. in Los
Angles. For more information visit www.lacma.org

INDUSTRY NIGHT @ The
Standard
On Tuesday nights at Industry Night at The
Standard, the mantra of being at the top of the Los Angeles elite is
followed. Lush Entertainment wanted to use the space available to make
it a breathing ground for models, artists or just beautiful people in
general to drink and schmooze. Add in DJ Crash who’s previous
work has seen him play from the Playboy Mansion to LAX, then it is more
than likely to equate to a good ole’ hip time. Feel up to
the task, then join in. The Standard is located at 8300 Sunset
Boulevard in Los Angeles. For more information call (323) 650-9090

Breaking and Entering @ Aero
Theatre
Architecture. Local Gangs. Passion. Three words
that usually don’t go together but the trio make up the
foundation of director Anthony Minghella’s (The Talented Mr.
Ripley) new film Breaking and Entering. The film, which stars Jude Law,
tells of the story of an entrepreneur who runs a landscape architecture
firm. Fed up by recent breaks in by a local gang, Will (Law) chases
after one of the young gang members, Miro which in turn leads to the
meeting of Amira (Juliette Binoche), the boy’s mother. As you can
expect, romance ensues. Tonight’s screening is a sneak preview.
Aero Theatre is located at 1328 Montana Ave. at 14 Street in Santa
Monica. For more information visit www.egyptiantheatre.com/Aero/aeromastercalendar.htm
