🎭 Events This Week
⭐ If you only do one thing this weekend:
🍿 Star Wars Triple Feature (Larkspur)
🎤 Tuesday Night Comedy (Mill Valley) 🗓️ Tuesday, April 28 | 8:00 pm 📍 142 Throckmorton Theatre 🎟️ Tickets $33 General Admission Throckmorton’s acclaimed Tuesday Night Comedy features fresh talent on the rise, PAT HAZELL, ROBERT MAC, KASEEM BENTLEY, NICOLE TRAN and KIRK MCHENRY as Host! A weekly comedy night that quietly became one of the most reliable things to do in Marin. Mix of seasoned comedians and newer voices trying out material. Crowd is usually dialed in and ready to laugh. 👉 Pro tip Get there a little early. Smaller room means better seats matter. 🎶 Holly Bowling (Solo Piano) at Sweetwater (Mill Valley) 🗓️ Tuesday, April 28 | 8:00 pm 📍 Sweetwater Music Hall 🎟️ Tickets $43.76 This is not background piano. Holly Bowling takes jam band music and turns it into something intricate and almost hypnotic on a single piano. Quiet room. People actually listening. 👉 Pro tip Sit close if you want to watch her hands. That is half the show. 🎶 Karla Bonoff at Sweetwater (Mill Valley) 🗓️ Thursday, April 30 | 8:00 pm 📍 Sweetwater Music Hall 🎟️ Tickets $58.20 A more classic songwriter night. Karla Bonoff has been behind a lot of songs people recognize even if they do not realize it. Older crowd, but in a good way. People are there for the music. 👉 Pro tip Great one if you want a more relaxed night out without a loud crowd. 🎸 Tazmanian Devils at Rancho Nicasio (Nicasio) 🗓️ Friday, May 1 | 7:30 pm 📍 Rancho Nicasio 🎟️ Tickets $30 High energy rock in one of the most Marin venues you can find. Bay Area rockers The TAZMANIAN DEVILS originated in Marin County, California, and erupted on the Bay Area club scene back in the late 1970s. 👉 Pro tip Make a night of it. Dinner plus music is the move here. 🎻 Broken Compass Bluegrass at Rancho Nicasio (Nicasio) 🗓️ Sunday, May 3 | 5:00 pm 📍 Rancho Nicasio 🎟️ Tickets $30 Broken Compass Bluegrass is leading the way in the contemporary bluegrass revival, combining tradition with innovation in a way that appeals to both longtime fans and new listeners alike. Modern bluegrass that still feels rooted. Easy Sunday plan where you can sit back, eat, and listen without feeling rushed. 👉 Pro tip Sit outside if the weather is good. That is the full experience. 🎻 ELM Spring Concert (Mill Valley) 🗓️ Sunday, May 3 | 2:00 pm 📍 142 Throckmorton Theatre 🎟️ Tickets $20 Local youth orchestra performance that leans more community than production. Good reminder of how much talent is coming up locally. 👉 Pro tip Great one if you want something low cost and feel good. 🍿 Star Wars Triple Feature (Larkspur) 🗓️ Monday, May 4 | 9:00 am & 5:00 pm 📍 Lark Theater 🎟️ Tickets ($7 Early Bird), $16.25 Original trilogy back on the big screen for May the 4th. This is an all day commitment if you do the full run, but that is kind of the point. Catch the original Star Wars Trilogy in 4K! 👉 Pro tip You do not have to stay all day. Pick your favorite and drop in. |
