How about some theatre???

Geffen Playhouse presents “The Country House.”

Inspired bSun-July5-Geffen-TheCountryHousey Anton Chekhov’s pastoral comedies, Pulitzer Prize winner Donald Margulies brings this funny and poignant world premiere – helmed by Tony Award winner Daniel Sullivan – to the Geffen Playhouse. Gathering in their Berkshire home during the Williamstown summer theater season, a family of actors wrestles with fame, art and, as always, each other. But when the events of the weekend go off-script, secrets are spilled and bonds are broken – threatening an already fragile foundation of a home brimming with old memories, new love and discarded dreams.

Written by Donald Margulies
Directed by Daniel Sullivan
Featuring Blythe Danner, Scott Foley, Eric Lange,
David Rasche, Sarah Steele & Emily Swallow

In Downtown LA….

At Coagula Curatorial, enjoy a discussion of the art and life of Jackson Pollock will be structured around interpreting his astrology chart.

Sun-July6-CoagulaThis is a casual one-hour immersion in art history and astrology. You need no training in either discipline to enjoy this talk led by Mat Gleason. Pollock is one of the major influences on the development of art in the 20th century and his impact is still felt today. He was born with the Sun in Aquarius and the Moon in Taurus. There is conflicting information about his birth time but that will only add to the discussion of Pollock’s personality, development and the placement of the planets on critical days in his life.

$5 donation at the door.
