Performing Arts Freebies: This Weekend!

 MORE FREE things to do related to the performing arts, are performing arts, or assist in the creative endeavors for the performing arts.  All listings will be from non-partisan or non- profit organizations. Granted it may actually not be possible to list all possible events in the area and will attempt to list those events of a secular public and worldly quality that are free and open to all of Los Angeles, as well as visitors and tourists. 

Keep in mind, though all of these events are listed as free, time does bring change.  Please check with the associated websites and links for directions, time changes, and any other information.  ENJOY and have a GREAT WEEKEND.
