Great evening at El Cid, a historic cabaret on Sunset Blvd on a Friday night to watch our talented friend Nelson Aspen in a comedy show on stage with equally talented pianist Mitch Kaplan and singer Carolyn Hennesy. Funny to learn that El Cid started in 1925 as a Jail-themed restaurant, complete with waiters dressed as guards and prisoners! 😁 It’s now known for its Flamenco dancing nights. 💃 #ElCid #elcidrestaurant #cabaret #comedyshow #Singing #historicalplace #nelsonaspen #jailthemedrestaurant #classichollywood (at El Cid on Sunset) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpqoGoavDrT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Fireworks in Marina del Rey for Independence Day. An interesting tradition that came from China, I was told, but could be misinterpreted if you came straight from Ukraine. Nevertheless, it was spectacular! #fireworks💥 #independenceday #explosionsinthesky #noisy #spectacular #tradition #fourthofjuly #lastfireworksbeforedronestakeover (at Marina del Rey, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CfqLVw9rXsl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Amazing stage performance on a Saturday night of THE BRAILLE LEGACY, a new groundbreaking musical about the genesis of Braille, performed entirely by blind actors and musicians with disabilities. Both touching and inspiring.
