This play by Sandy Rustin premiered on Broadway two years ago. It’s a sort of homage to the work of Noel Coward, and it takes place in the English countryside. Again, sounds subtle, old-fashioned, maybe unsexy, right? But! Sylvia is the main character, and she’s in this cottage with her lover, Beau, doing the things lovers usually do there. Sylvia wants to seal the deal with him. Beau, well, not so much. That’s awkward, but not as awkward as what happens next: Their spouses — yup, you read that right — are coming to cottage — and Sylvia wants to reveal the affair to them. It sounds awkward ... But sparks fly, hijinks ensue, and so on!

Jon Batiste, a very high-profile, highly awarded singer/musician/composer of late who has only made appearances at tribute and award shows here in Las Vegas. Finally, he headlines — two nights, in fact — and he’s going to have a hell of a time whittling down his growing body of work into a standard setlist. He does everything: jazz, blues, country, R&B, gospel and soul music, essentially the roots music of America, which he filters through his own artistic lens. It’s typically uplifting, and that’s what he hopes to do for this current live tour of his. For reference, Batiste was the Best Album Grammy award winner in 2022, and he won an Oscar — among other wards — for the jazz music in the 2020 movie Soul, which is, in my opinion, one of the best and underrated movies in the Pixar animated canon.

Many of the acts booked in Vegas for Mexican Independence Day week sing in Spanish, but are not actually from Mexico. Caifanes is not only Mexican, they’re one of the pioneers of modern Mexican music, going back to the mid 1980s. They were heavily influenced by that decade’s British and American rock, and combined them with touchstones of traditional and modern Mexican music. Ultimately, they became one of the forefather acts of the rock en Español movement. They’ve been here before, but it’s great that they’re being counted among the many live music acts here for the big mid-September holiday stretch.

One Book, One Henderson is an annual event aiming to get everyone talking about the same book. Books are available at libraries and online. This year’s selection, The Fox Wife, is by Yangsze Choo. It begins in 1908 Manchuria and explores a world of mortals and spirits, humans and beasts, and their dazzling intersections. Epic in scope and full of singular, unforgettable characters, The Fox Wife is a stunning novel about old loves and second chances, the depths of maternal love, and ancient folktales that might very well be true.

On October 1 the author will be at the Henderson Multigenerational Center (250 S. Green Valley Parkway) for a book signing. You can get a copy there.

It's free, but go to "Get Tickets" and you can find out more, hear music related to the book's setting, see art inspired by The Fox Wife, participate in a book club discussion, and find links to the ebook and audiobook.
