Chin up, cheer up, go see something.
Tues-Fri – 3/2-7
- Spring Awakening @ DPAC – This groundbreaking rock musical based on an 1891 German play but retooled by Steven Sater and Duncan Sheik (yes, that Duncan Sheik) won 8 Tony awards (including Best Musical, Best Book, and Best Score) and pretty much changed my life. Go. $25 – $70
Tues – 3/2
- Ben Sollee and Daniel Martin Moore / Lizzy Ross and the Little Bear that Barks @ The Arts Center in Carrboro – Two Kentucky boys and rising stars join forces (along with producer Yim Yames) to make beautiful music for an important cause–namely to raise awareness about the horrible destruction of our landscape through the use of mountaintop removal coal mining. Learn more about MTR mining and what you can do to help end it here. $13 adv / $15 day of the show
Wed – 3/3
