Pencil This In: Animation @ Redcat, Cool Cats Pop-Up Store

There's an abundance of interesting events about town tonight -- which is surprising because it is Monday, after all. Here are some of our favs:

Pencil This In: Tokyo! Opens at the Nuart, Calder Quartet Plays for Free

See for yourself if the film(s) Tokyo! is worth the hype. It opens tonight in two SoCal Theatres: the Nuart and the Westpark 8. It’s a surreal triptych set in modern Tokyo with segments directed by Michel Gondry (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind), Léos Carax (The Lovers on the Bridge), and Bong Joon-ho (The Host). As a bonus, Gondry and Ayako Fujitani, the lead actress in Gondry's "Interior Design" film, will appear in person to introduce the 7:15 pm show at the Nuart.

Why is it that there's always too much to do in December? Just look at this sampling of events happening around town tonight. Check out other events on LAist Agenda: December.

The Nutcracker (seen here with the Kirov Ballet) is a popular ballet by Tchaikovsky, that people love to perform (and see) during the Christmas season. There are at least three different groups performing it this month in the LA area, starting this week with the Lewis Family Playhouse in San Gabriel. The South Bay Ballet and the Kirov Ballet also perform it this month, giving you plenty of options to choose from.
