Beatles Full Moon Concert in the Dark

On the April Full Moon, come set intentions and indulge in the mesmerizing allure of live acoustic music performed by world-class musicians, surrounded by the warm glow of candlelight. Its a different kind of concert, that begins and ends in darkness, with music and a poem or two surrounding and soothing you. Audience members will be given the choice of bringing their own yoga mats and/or pillows to gaze at the shadows on the ceiling. A circle of chairs will be provided.

Special Screenings

Cowboy Bebop: The Movie (2003)

OK, 3-2-1, let’s jam. In 2001, Shinichirō Watanabe brought back his free-jazz anime riff to cinemas with Cowboy Bebop: Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door (better known internationally as Cowboy Bebop: The Movie). For fans, it was a hidden episode 22 1/2, but for new audiences it was a wild ride into his cool space-noir packed with bounty hunters, existential doubt, gunplay, and the cutest Pembroke Welsh Corgi in the solar system. See you, space cowboy. – Richard Whittaker

Curren$y, Stove God Cooks [garage]

Curren$y has one of the most stacked résumés in hip-hop. After stints with Master P’s No Limit Records and Lil Wayne’s Young Money Entertainment, the New Orleans MC struck out on his own, founded Jet Life imprint, and has since garnered a cult following for his levitational brand of stoner rap. Hailed as a godfather of the blog era, he’s continued to carve out his own lane through collaborative albums with the likes of the Alchemist and Wiz Khalifa – further cementing status as an underground king. Syracuse newcomer Stove God Cooks is also slated to appear. – Elizabeth Braaten

Hyperreal Hotel: Bride of Chucky

I’m biased here, see, because your ol’ pal James is a major fan of that evil doll Charles Lee Ray. What’s playing this coming Monday in the beautifully dank caverns of Hotel Vegas is the crown jewel of the Child’s Play franchise. This comedy-horror masterpiece takes the plastic-gut frenzy of Child’s Play 2 and smashes it straight into high-quality goth-girl aesthetics via the one, the only: Tiffany Valentine, played by the iconic Jennifer Tilly. Plus: Monday’s screening is presented by horror expert and frequent Weird Wednesday programmer Morgan Hyde, so you know this one’s a top-tier pick. Arrive early and grab a Hyperreal Hotel punch card to get yourself on the way to earning a free keychain. – James Scott
