Performing Arts entertainment in Los Angeles

  1. A

    Music Center of LA County

    At this linchpin of the downtown performing arts scene, splashy musicals play to capacity at the Ahmanson Theatre, while the more intimate Mark Taper Forum premieres high-caliber plays. With Placido Domingo at the helm, the LA Opera has fine-tuned its repertory of classics by master composers, with performances at the Dorothy Chandler pavilion. Parking costs $8 in the evening.

  2. B

    Greek Theatre

    Appreciative summer crowds love the vibe and the variety – Lyle Lovett, Tina Turner, the Russian Ballet, Death Cab for Cutie, Gipsy Kings – at this 5800-seat outdoor venue tucked in the woodsy hills of Griffith Park. Be forewarned, parking is stacked, so plan on a post-show wait.
