Freud Playhouse
Thru June 6 If Broadway is what you’re craving, then check
out this Stephen Sondheim musical presented by REPRISE!
Broadway’s Best. With such a bold name, this group of
Broadway “all-stars” has a lot to live up to.
Let’s hope the performance warrants the ticket prices.

AC/DSHE
Spaceland
Saturday, 9 p.m. An all-girl tribute band to the greatest classic
rock/metal group ever might seem like a gimmicky, terrible idea.
But it turns out these girls not only talk the talk but walk the
walk. So if you love AC/DC (and really, if you’re honest with
yourself, who doesn’t?), take a ride on the highway to hell
down to Silverlake and give these ladies a holler. $8. Try
