A full tablao-format flamenco show with live guitar, cante, and baile performed in the heart of Old Town's anchor hotel on Central. Hotel Albuquerque's venue has the sightlines and acoustics...

Three Albuquerque-rooted entertainment outfits, AM ENT, JJ Official, and Reklez Ent, are co-presenting this throwback concert at the Lobo, the old movie house on Central that has found a second life as one of the more atmospheric event spaces on the corridor. The Lobo's wide floor and elevated stage give it a genuine concert feel...
Dee Brown brings a full Ray Charles tribute to the Albuquerque Museum's outdoor amphitheater, backed by Bump City, as part of the 35th year of Music Under the Stars. The museum lawn holds a crowd well and the sight lines are forgiving, but a blanket or low chair makes the difference between a good night...
Two improv groups sharing a stage at The Box means the room feeds on itself, and on a good night that feedback loop produces something no scripted set can replicate.

In The Box Annex takes improv somewhere extraterrestrial with A51*, a one-hour comedy set built around the kind of absurdist premises that either land brilliantly or flame out in real time, which is the whole point. The Box is a small black-box room where the audience is close enough to the performers that there is...
