Forget flowers, send the weekend.
PERK ALERT
Ties. Shirts. Blazers. You Need This.
Crashing weddings. With the right linen blazer, it’s almost too easy. So suit up with up to 30%
off the rakish summer gear at Commonwealth Proper, or by getting
$150 for $100 at Apolis.
Final tip: show up on a Jetson, the Ferrari of electronic bikes. And watch
out for Isla Fisher types.
COVERT OP(ERA)
A Wild Pile of Culture in Atwater
Tonight, you could go to a bar and you could drink a drink. Or you could go to a crazy warehouse in Atwater,
where you’ll stroll past six different sets to follow the performers of Crescent City: A
Hyperopera, a touching story of tornadoes and voodoo. Also, there’s some electronica. Because why
wouldn’t there be.
- 411:
- May 10-27, $25-$75, Atwater Crossing, 3245 Casitas Ave, 323-842-4230, tickets here
FIELD AND ’STREAM
The Aetherstream Trailer Returns
This weather reminds you... You need some beach pants. And a light jacket. And some impossibly quick-drying
swim trunks. If they’re from a trailer... so be it. The Aetherstream trailer is back in LA, restocked with
that kind of high-tech summer stuff. Best thing to happen to trailers since parks.
- 411:
- May 11-12, Aetherstream at Space 15 Twenty, 1520 N Cahuenga Blvd
YOUR MOM
Just an Epic Mother’s Day at Scarpetta
Mother’s Day is not the time for, like, a waffle and some OJ. Sunday at Scarpetta, you’ll be free to hit
up a carving station, an omelet station, a whole-roasted-fish station, a dessert station... and they’ll
keep the bottomless Bloodys or mimosas coming. You may even want to invite your mom.
- 411:
- May 13, 11am-3pm, $88 ($17 additional for bottomless drinks), Scarpetta at Montage Beverly Hills, 225 N Canon Dr, 310-860-7970
SPARKLER MOTION
The Infamous Bagatelle Brunch Is Here
Oceans of champagne, sparklers and maybe the occasional bite of french toast—over in NYC, the original
Bagatelle party brunch got completely out of hand. Now it’s our city’s turn to give it a go. This
one’s probably not for your mom. Though if it is, we’d like to meet your mom.
- 411:
- Sat-Sun starting May 12, 11am-6pm, Bagatelle, 755 N La Cienega Blvd, 310-659-3900
REBEL, REBEL
Franco Does Dean, Again
You’ve always liked Rebel Without a Cause. But maybe not as much as James Franco. He’s
spearheading a new MOCA-sponsored exhibit called Rebel, with a bunch of artists throwing in videos,
paintings and photography inspired by the movie. Even weird reenactments. Usually you just watch the movie.
- 411:
- May 15-Jun 23, Rebel at JF Chen, 941 N Highland Ave, Hollywood, 323-466-9700
