The Forecast

This weekend, the Colorado Symphony Orchestra is playing along with "The Wizard of Oz." The classic movie will play on big screens, with the orchestra playing the soundtrack! Live! What fun. Friday, 1/9, at 7:30 p.m. and Saturday, 1/10, at 2:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

On Tuesday, 1/13, it's the CSO's free annual Martin Luther King Jr. tribute concert. Tickets required. Pick them up free from the central downtown library or the Blair-Caldwell branch. 7:30 p.m.

Also, beginning 1/13, you can see Yang Fudong’s 6-minute video "City Light" at MCA Denver. The contemporary art museum is hosting a public reception that Friday, 1/16, 6-10 p.m. Yang was born in Beijing but now lives in Shanghai. "City Light" (2000) looks at an office worker and his doppelganger, or perhaps you could view the doppelganger as his alter ego or his private self. The exhibition runs until May 10.
