Didn’t it feel good to get out of the house last weekend? I don’t know about you, but between the Pico Art Walk, all those openings at Bergamot and the shopping I did at Gracie, I think I walked about 20 miles. Maybe I burnt enough calories that I can eat some Halloween candy next weekend.

Speaking of Halloween, Powerhouse Theatre Company gives us a head start on the holiday of spooks with a new Angus Oblong play opening this weekend. It’s your last chance to see City Garage’s “The Bacchae,” and on Sunday, there’s a one-afternoon-only Stravinsky performance at Miles. Fairview Library’s celebrating their 50th birthday... and since my feet are still hurting, you’ll find me sitting through it all.
