Much ADoobie Brothers About Nothing ~ Troubador Theatre Co.~ Santa Monica

"Because nobody does Doobies...like the Troubies!"

The Troubador Theater Company's 11th Season is just alright with me, taking their new production to the streets with a crazy, fun-filled paeon to 1970's rockin' soul team, The Doobie Brothers. Of course, one needs a story, and the amazingly impulsive, professional crew of actors riff on Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing with solid, creative impulses that give the love-lorn text a breath of CPR. Actress Jen Siefert especially turns us on as Beatrice...with her acting, we mean, of course.

Directed by former child actor Matt Walker, the show opened in early August and continues until September 10 at the Miles Memorial Playhouse, 1130 Lincoln Blvd. in Santa Monica. Tickets can be reserved at www.troubie.com or call 310-979-7196.

Street Vendors Successfully Sue City to Remove Illegal ‘No Vending’ Signs And Won

L.A. will also have to reimburse the street vendors for their past fines relating to this controversial sign. However, this does not include any other fines related to equipment restrictions or lack of permits. This also means that while a vendor can’t be cited for vending in areas like the Hollywood Walk of Fame anymore, they can still get cited for other city regulations.
