Even Santa Monica's endless summer must eventually give way to fall
and now that day arrives. Summer is over. Here in Santa Monica our
season was filled with
Jazz on the Lawn in front of City Hall and the
Twilight Dance Series on Santa Monica Pier. We’ve had
Shakespeare in the Park and at the Miles Playhouse and
Shakespeare on the run with all 37 plays (abridged) at the
Ruskin . There was at least one brilliant
Rhinoceros roaming the Promenade and a family filled
Fourth of July Parade that will do down in history. There were
chilling murders meticulously planned and executed at the
Aero, zydeco and children’s concerts at
McCabe's, walking tours of downtown
Santa Monica and so many other creative activities that
took place this summer - far more than I could ever list here. I
hope you had a good one – I know I did! So don those whites one last time before summer ends and have a great weekend! |

Tonight On The Pier |

Los Lobos Twilight Dance Series 7:30 pm Tonight! Santa Monica Pier |
|
| Los Lobos recorded their first record, Si Se Puede in the late 70’s and broke into the mainstream in 1984 with How Will the Wolf Survive? Tonight they’ll rock the Pier so hard the waves will head back to Catalina. | |

Now Boarding at Santa Monica Playhouse |

Famed French Detective Peugeot is perhaps most known for her uncanny ability to not only put her foot in her plate, but to wiggle her toes at the same time. But is she truly a klutz á la française or is there brilliance hiding behind her bumbling façade? She will reveal it all when she ferrets out the criminal culprit amongst the finalists of the National Devil’s-Food-Cake-Mix Devil’s Island Treasure Hunt. The entire audience joins in on the hunt and a new criminal is discovered at each performance! |
