Drawing on his years as a private investigator and newspaper reporter, he will discuss how investigative work shapes his stories, the research behind bringing the 1930s vividly to life, and the inspirations that inform his complex protagonists.

Set during the Great Depression, Die Famous follows Savannah Cody as she sets out to find Edward "Nickel" Terhune, the Brady Gang’s getaway driver and the father of her child, traveling across the country with her son and her father, a retired railroad detective.

    Andrew Brown and Session

    Detroit · 76 Adams Ave W

    A performance led by trumpeter, producer, educator, and artist Andrew Brown spotlights a rising voice from Dearborn with roots in Michigan State University’s jazz program. A recent graduate who studied trumpet, he balances daytime teaching of K–8 general music at a Lansing charter school with nights devoted to performing and creating. His approach draws from many genres with a stated goal of bringing people together, and by 22 he had already collaborated with leading figures across Detroit, national, and international jazz communities. Brown’s work in the studio includes Lovely, his self-produced debut from 2022, a pop-leaning reflection on heartbreak that featured fellow MSU musicians and earned favorable notes from outlets including the Dearborn Free Press. He has continued to release singles and collaborations while completing his degree, and a new project is in development. On stage, he is an active jazz trumpet performer with appearances at notable venues in Detroit, in Tokyo, and at Lincoln Center in New York City. Mentors and teachers include Anthony Stanco and Rodney Whitaker, along with Detroit mainstays Kris Johnson, Vincent Chandler, Scott Gwinell, Marcus Elliot, and Rayse Biggs. Through MSU’s program he has performed and toured with artists such as Renee Rosnes, Jazzmeia Horn, Stefon Harris, Marquis Hill, Geoffrey Keezer, Carmen Bradford, Camille Thurman, Ryan Keberle, Randy Napoleon, Michael Dease, and Walter Blanding. He has also been a finalist for the National Trumpet Competition and the International Trumpet Guild Jazz Competition in 2025. This engagement features two performances. Doors open for dinner service, with seating arranged in advance for Dinner & a Show and separate seating for the second set.

    Fusion: Floating Sound Healing Experience

    Troy · CenterPeace, 2605 Crooks Rd

    Settle into a gentle, multi-sensory journey designed to calm the nervous system, quiet the mind, and invite restoration from within. Fusion, CenterPeace’s hallmark floating sound experience, welcomes guests into a thoughtfully prepared environment where natural or softly glowing light and subtle aromas ease the shift from daily pace to a slower, more grounded rhythm. As the body is fully supported, layered tones from crystal singing bowls, gongs, chimes, and resonant vibrations move through the space, turning sound into sensation. Breath deepens naturally, tension releases, and stillness grows. Nothing is required beyond arriving, floating, and allowing. Choose the setting that feels most supportive. Floating silk hammocks create a buoyant sensation that encourages profound physical release, grounded floor havens with memory foam cushions offer steady comfort close to the earth, and zero gravity chairs elevate the body to reduce pressure throughout the spine and joints. Each option is prepared with pillows, blankets, eye masks, and other gentle touches to enhance relaxation. Silk hammocks support up to 275 lbs, while zero gravity chairs and grounded havens have no weight restriction. Space is intentionally limited to preserve the intimacy of the experience. Every Fusion is created in collaboration with sound and vibrational practitioners, so each gathering carries its own energy and expression. The experience is facilitated by Jenna Tasker, founder of CenterPeace Healing and Events, who crafts immersive environments through sound, breath, and energetic awareness. Ticket options range from $40 to $50, with the Floating Silk Hammock at $50, the Grounded Floor Haven at $40, and the Zero Gravity Chair at $40 with limited availability.

    Saxophonist Kasan Belgrave takes the spotlight as a composer and bandleader, channeling early bebop and modern jazz with flashes of fusion and gospel. His vibrant tone and quicksilver improvisation reflect years of guidance within Detroit’s jazz lineage led by his father, trumpeter Marcus Belgrave. Recent original works continue that momentum, with Dual Citizen offering a first look into his musical upbringing and professional craft while exploring bold new sounds. His training includes studies with Andrew Bishop, Benny Green, and Robert Hurst at the University of Michigan, followed by an assistantship at Michigan State University under Diego Rivera and Rodney Whitaker. He has toured as a multi-woodwind artist with Jazz at Lincoln Center with Wynton Marsalis, appeared in residencies curated by Terri Lyne Carrington, and performed with Karriem Riggins and Etienne Charles. The 27-year-old has also been deeply active across Detroit’s musical landscape, moving fluidly through Latin, R&B, and techno settings. Taking the stage as the Kasan Belgrave Sextet, the ensemble reflects the same circle of mentorship that shaped him. The group features bassist Jonathan Muir-Cotton, currently rotating in Christian Sands’ trio, drummer Louis Jones known as WavyLou who has recently worked with ELEW and Johnny O’Neal, and pianist Brendon Davis, a virtuosic voice who studied briefly with Chick Corea and is established in gospel composition and arranging. Trumpeter Allen Dennard brings a trailblazing sound and has shared stages with Dwele and Mike Phillips, while Michael Abbo, adept on both trombone and bass, has performed with Johnny Oneal and Dafnis Prieto.

    Konrad Lee's Pre-Halloween Shenanigans

    Detroit · Batch Brewing Company, 1400 Porter St

    Celebrate the spooky season a little early with a lively variety showcase led by Konrad Lee, a versatile lounge singer with acrobatic vocals, Detroit ties, and a noted fondness for Red Roof Inns across the country. He reconnects with long-time collaborators for an evening of music, juggling, old-school vaudeville flair, balloons and bubbles, risqué verse, and delightfully surreal clowning. Award-winning artist One Single Rose appears with a resume that spans poetry, playwriting, spoken word, music, acting, and filmmaking, including three self-published poetry collections with both nice and naughty chapbooks, plus distinctions such as the inaugural Detroit Black Music Spoken Word Award and being the first poet published after the Broadside-Lotus Press merger. Goiter the Clown explores the clown condition by blending Joneser philosophy, reflective musings, and a streak of mayhem designed to spark the human psyche. From Grand Rapids by way of Chicago, Will Juggle brings sharp humor, champion-caliber skills, and an award-winning beard. Rounding out the bill, Cleveland’s husband-and-wife duo Pinch and Squeal deliver musical neo-vaudeville mischief full of whimsy, knowingly corny sentiment, high-octane antics, and timeworn jokes, calling to mind a mix of Penn and Teller with Burns and Allen. Tickets are $20 in advance and $25 at the door.

When competing pressures arise between friendship and feelings, traditional expectations and personal goals, and fears and dreams, she learns that finding a happy ending may require rethinking what she wants and who she hopes to become. Fahmy grew up in Dearborn and discovered a love of comics as a child. She studied English at the University of Michigan, taught middle and high school English for eight years, and later began creating comics about life as a visibly Muslim woman in America with encouragement from her sister.

    Marshall Crenshaw

    Ferndale · The Magic Bag, 22920 Woodward Ave

    The Magic Bag hosts an evening with Marshall Crenshaw, joined by special guests Sarah Borges and Eric Ambel. Detroit-born Crenshaw picked up the guitar at a young age and first hit the spotlight in 1978 portraying John Lennon in the stage production Beatlemania. After relocating to New York City in 1980, he formed a rock and roll trio with his brother Robert on drums and Chris Donato on bass. Early momentum followed with his single Something’s Gonna Happen on Shake Records and Robert Gordon’s recording of his song Someday Someway on RCA, both earning significant airplay on WNEW-FM and boosting his local profile. Over a career spanning four decades, he has released 13 albums, received Grammy and Golden Globe nominations, appeared on screen as Buddy Holly in La Bamba, and performed thousands of shows. His current touring band, assembled in 2022, features multi-instrumentalist and producer Fernando Perdomo, bassist and songwriter Derrick Anderson, and drummer Mark Ortmann, a founding member of the Bottle Rockets. A recent New York performance drew praise from Infocus Visions Music & Arts Magazine for the dynamic full-band interplay and onstage energy. This is an all-ages show, and the performance will be standing room only.

    Authors!

    Toledo · Toledo Lucas County Public Library - Main Library

    Bethany Joy Lenz appears in Toledo as part of the Authors! series to preview her forthcoming novel, The Betrayal of Cora Wexford. She will discuss why she chose to write a psychological thriller in Victorian London, share insights into her creative process, reflect on shifting from nonfiction to historical suspense, and describe how research into social history shapes her storytelling. The program includes a 45 minute talk followed by a short audience Q and A, and each admission comes with a copy of the book. Set in 1880s London, the story follows Cora Wexford, a 38 year old American expatriate who earns her living by painting portraits of the dead. Hoping to leave old secrets behind, she meets the charming Miles Vale while also accepting a commission from a suffragist to portray everyday women the system has overlooked. When a string of murders surfaces that echoes crimes associated with Jack the Ripper, Cora’s work becomes a dangerous fixation. As her sense of reality and her bond with Miles grow increasingly unsettled, she is forced to face a chilling unraveling close to home. Lenz is a New York Times bestselling writer whose memoir Dinner for Vampires was named to Time’s best of the year list. Known for her starring role in One Tree Hill, her screen work also includes Grey’s Anatomy, Dexter, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Hope Valley: 1874, and she is active as a recording artist, composer, and fine artist.

    The Poisoner

    Detroit · Marygrove Conservancy, 8425 McNichols Rd W

    At Marygrove Conservancy in Detroit, The Poisoner concludes a seven-city run with a story rooted close to home. This neo-noir stage thriller, sparked by the Flint water crisis, follows a reporter who returns to his hometown and uncovers a contaminated water supply, setting off ripples that are both deeply personal and politically charged. First presented in 2024 at New York’s La MaMa Experimental Theatre, the play marks the debut of Port Huron native M. M. Haney, with direction and development by two-time Obie Award recipient Lee Sunday Evans. The piece unpacks deception, the misuse of authority, and systemic negligence tied to early-2000s Midwestern water policy, asking audiences to consider a pressing question... how safe are we, really? Though fictional, the work highlights ongoing struggles in communities such as Flint, Jackson, and Newark, calling for accountability and constant vigilance in decisions that affect public health. It pays tribute to the persistence of journalists, artists, and activists who continue to elevate community voices in the pursuit of justice and change. Limited to three performances. Students and seniors with valid ID can take $5 off with the code FIVEOFF. Post-show conversations with special guests are planned, with further details to be shared.

    Haunted by a past he can no longer keep to himself, Arthur Kipps turns to a young actor to help him re-create a true tale of haunting and evil that began years earlier at the remote Eel Marsh House.

Through the force of imagination, the audience is carried into rolling coastal mists, rising fear, and the chilling presence of a silent woman clad in black. This staging has its origins in a 2025 production from The Penny Seats Theatre Company.

    12 Magickal Beings of the World of Humans

    Rochester · Divine PowerHouse, 929 W University Dr

    This foundational class serves as a prerequisite to attend Healer’s Academy and explores how twelve magickal beings are understood to share the world with humanity, with a focus on renewing harmony between realms. Drawing from the Mystery School tradition, it introduces beings such as elves, fairies, mer, and others, considers why their presence receded from everyday human awareness, and offers ways to rebuild a respectful and balanced relationship. Participants learn about the unique gifts attributed to these beings, the history of humanity’s connection with them, approaches for restoring harmonious collaboration, and how these teachings relate to wider aims of peace and planetary healing. To get the most from the experience, Life Activation and Empower Thyself are strongly encouraged beforehand. The class is part of a Core Curriculum intensive weekend offered alongside Journeys of the Spirit, Sacred Geometry 1, and Astral Travel, and these courses are required for initiates who plan to continue training in the International Healers Academy Program. Tuition is $250 for initiates and $350 for the general public. A $900 package for all four classes is available by contacting Erin. Packages are non-refundable, and any unused portion is determined by subtracting the regular class price from the remaining balance, which can be applied to other classes and sessions offered by Erin Bannink. Please arrive on time, as the main building is locked after business hours and on weekends, and a Divine PowerHouse Team member will provide entry at the downstairs door and escort participants out through the alarmed main door after the class.

Your guided journey unfolds with a cleansing using special South American water, followed by an individual Palo Santo clearing to release stagnant energy and make room for renewal. You will be invited to set a personal intention, then ease into conscious breathwork that softens the body and quiets the mind. As you settle, guided imagery opens the door to clarity and possibility, and affirmations encourage emotional release and a deeper connection within. Through visualization, sound, and breath, you will also be guided into a felt relationship with the natural world, grounded to the earth and open to the sky. Resonant vibrations from crystal and Tibetan singing bowls wash through the body to dissolve tension and invite deep rest. Sanskrit mantras voiced by Deepa support energetic flow and awaken subtle layers within. A gentle shamanic drum journey concludes the experience, helping you return feeling centered, clear, and calmly present. Participants commonly leave feeling profoundly relaxed, mentally clear, emotionally balanced, energetically refreshed, and peacefully grounded. Tickets are $40 for a plush grounded space or $50 for a hammock. Capacity is intentionally limited to preserve an intimate setting.

    Embodied Evolution: A Somatic Exploration for Women

    St. Clair Shores · GVST Wellness, 26600 Harper Ave

    Embodied Evolution offers a somatic space for those who have reflected deeply yet still sense patterns living in the body. It speaks to the brace that shows up in uncertainty, the urge to shrink or stay quiet, the pull to care for everyone else and hold everything together, emotions kept contained, unmet needs, and parts of self that no longer felt safe to express. Participants are invited to relate to these places in a new way. Through breath, intentional movement, guided imagery, sound, and deep rest, the experience moves through the chapters of your life with the body included in the conversation rather than relying on memory alone. The intention is not to change what happened. It is to create space now for the body to experience something different. This event takes place at GVST Wellness.

    Comedy Night unfolds in The Roxy Lounge, the cozy downstairs space beneath The Roxy, where a small-room vibe, close seating, and a nearby full bar set the stage for live stand-up.

His material is clean, quick, and self-aware, drawing laughs from family life, Italian culture, sports, technology, and everyday moments, delivered with a smooth rhythm that can shift into rapid fire when the moment hits.

Recent screen credits include Lionsgate’s Guest House, Adam Sandler’s Sandy Wexler, DreamWorks’ Pinocchio: A True Story, and the indie film How It Ends alongside Whitney Cummings, Olivia Wilde, and Nick Kroll.

Fans online have also championed him to portray fitness icon Richard Simmons, inspired by memes, a noted resemblance, and his Sweating With the Wiez series. He appears in the documentary I Wanna Open for Pauly Shore, a satirical competition that follows five emerging comics vying for a chance to open for him, filmed in Los Angeles with Don Barris of Jimmy Kimmel and Vicki Barbolak of America’s Got Talent serving as hosts and judges.

    Mortuary Manor Public Investigation & Flashlight Tour

    Toledo · Mortuary Manor , 2907 Lagrange St.

    Eerie Excursions leads a public paranormal investigation and flashlight tour at Mortuary Manor in Toledo, a former funeral home shaped by decades of emotion, remembrance, and unexplained occurrences. Once known as the Urbanski Funeral Home, the site still reflects its past with former viewing rooms, preparation areas, and quiet corridors that investigators explore after dark. Reports from previous visits describe shadows sliding along walls, abrupt temperature shifts, unexplained footsteps in empty hallways, and a lingering sense of being watched. Options include a guided flashlight walkthrough that highlights the building’s history and reported activity, a four hour investigation that begins with a brief introduction and walkthrough before time to free roam, or an eight hour overnight designed for deeper exploration. The overnight session is limited to 20 participants for a quieter, more immersive experience. This event welcomes newcomers and experienced investigators alike. No prior background is needed, as the team explains investigation methods and equipment at the start, and seasoned attendees may bring their own gear. As one of Ohio’s newer locations for paranormal research, Mortuary Manor offers a rare chance to explore a site with little prior documentation and to experience what the building reveals when everything grows quiet.

    Full Moon Yoga Nidra

    Mt Clemens · 81 Macomb Pl

    Settle into a guided Yoga Nidra practice with Daniel Carpenter, the eleventh of 12 full moon sessions this year. Over about 45 minutes, participants recline on a pad or blanket, cover up for comfort, and rest the head on a small pillow or folded blanket while being led toward a state of deep, dreamless-like rest. Organizers describe this relaxed state as one that may activate the pineal gland, support the body’s healing response, foster a sense of connectedness, and offer restoration comparable to several hours of sleep. A central feature is sankalpa, a meaningful intention that each session helps re-energize, while strengthening the ability to enter profound relaxation. Results tend to deepen with consistent practice. Hosted at Bodhi Seed Yoga. Cost is $20.

Bring a dish you enjoy, label ingredients if it is homemade for those with dietary needs, and bring your own serving utensils, heating utensils, and dinnerware, since paper products are not supplied. Please avoid strong fragrances to support participants with sensitivities, and refrain from photos or video during the dance without group consent.

Refunds are only issued if the event is canceled, and there are no refunds if someone is asked to leave due to safety protocols.

    Harper and Midwest Kind Sound Journey

    Troy · CenterPeace Healing and Events Center Troy, 2605 Crooks Rd

    Immerse in a guided experience of sound, color and breath led by award winning Australian musicians and sound healers Peter D. Harper and Bobbi Llewellyn-Harper. This workshop centers on clarifying heartfelt intention and transforming ideas seeded in the subconscious into tangible outcomes through creative imagination and positive mantras. Participants explore the seven chakras, also described as seven planetary energy centers, through didgeridoo sound and color attunement, vocal toning and conscious connected breathing. Attendees are introduced to the Australian Indigenous didgeridoo, known as the Yidaki or Mako, and its long standing role in vibrational healing. The facilitators share how its drone and overtones can support the release of pain, grief, stress and emotional blockages, with focused attention on clearing heavy or muted frequencies in specific areas. A sound bath follows, featuring didgeridoo with interwoven male and female vocal harmonies and power vowels that deepen meditation. According to the presenters, these frequencies encourage brainwave entrainment and a restorative state, and they highlight singing traditions of First Nations peoples of Australia for orienting to the land and manifesting needs. The soundscape may also include message sticks from Australia, the Navajo, also known as the Dine, traditional drum, Native American love flute, drone flute, crystal singing bowls, harmonica, tongue drum, rain disk and sustained keyboard tones. No yoga background is required and beginners are welcome. Wear comfortable clothing and consider bringing a mat, blanket, favorite comfort items and a drink. The studio provides mats, bolsters and blankets for added ease. Tickets are 45 dollars. Peter has received permission from First Nations clan elders to perform on the didgeridoo and has received a blessing for his instruments. Bobbi holds a Bachelor of Music Education and Therapy and has more than two decades of study with a Western Mystery School, including Alchemy, Hermetic Qabalah, Tarot, the Tree of Life, Sound and Color, Gematria and Esoteric Astrology. Together they have shared their work across the United States, Canada, Australia, Europe, the United Kingdom and China with diverse communities, including all ages, special needs groups, veterans experiencing post traumatic stress, at risk youth and individuals in hospice or facing cancer or multiple sclerosis.

    Full Moon Yoga Nidra

    Mt Clemens · 81 Macomb Pl

    Settle into a full moon Yoga Nidra led by Daniel Carpenter, the twelfth gathering in a yearlong series timed around the full moon. Over 45 minutes, you will be gently guided while resting on a mat or pad, covered with a blanket and with a small pillow or folded blanket supporting your head. The practice encourages the body and mind to ease into a deeply restful state, hovering at the threshold between wakefulness and dreamless sleep. In this level of relaxation, the experience is described as activating the pineal gland and releasing hormones that can support healing for body and mind, often nurturing a greater sense of connectedness. Many find the session as restorative as several hours of sleep. A central element is sankalpa, a heartfelt intention. Each meeting refreshes and strengthens this intention while deepening your capacity to access profound rest. Consistent practice tends to refine the results. Hosted at Bodhi Seed Yoga. Cost is $20.
