Royce Hall and the Veterans Administration are among 30 Los Angeles locations for the famed "Play Me, I'm Yours" public art installation.
Become The Piano Man with Westwood as your stage. "Play Me, I'm Yours"—the famous public art display installation of pianos available for anyone to sit down and play—officially opened in 30 Los Angeles locations Thursday with a simultaneous play-in of Bach’s Preludes from The Well-Tempered Clavier.

The J. Paul Getty Museum will host its annual College Night on Monday from 6–9:30 p.m. at the Getty Center. Local college students are invited to enjoy a free night of special tours, live music, food, and other activities, all incorporating this year’s theme: “L.A. Style.” That evening, students will rub shoulders with Hollywood elite (on paper at least), thanks to two newly opened photographs exhibitions: Herb Ritts: L.A. Style and Portraits of Renown: Photography and the Cult of Celebrity. Ritts, the famed fashion and celebrity photographer, whose life was cut short by AIDS in 2002, created many of the black and white iconic images seen in magazines and on television in the 1980s and 90s. Portraits of Renown surveys the visual strategies…

The newest show at the Geffen Playhouse will open officially later this month.
The West Coast premiere of David Lindsay-Abaire's play Good People begins this month at the Geffen Playhouse. Previews begin Tuesday and the play officially opens April 11. Good People centers around Margie Walsh, played by Jane Kacmarek (who you'll probably recognize as the mother from "Malcolm In The Middle"), who lives in South Boston and struggles to keep a job, make rent, and care for her grown daughter. In her desperate search for a job, she reconnects with someone from her past who worked his way out of "Southie" to a comfortable life. The play was nominated for a Tony award and was named the best play of 2010-11 by the New York Drama Critics Circle. The play is scheduled to run through May 13.
