War, social upheaval, lock-step thinking and the crush of history pulse through this compilation of two Heiner M�ller works. The chilly formality of the text and icy beauty of the images tend to freeze out the theatergoer, but provocative questions hang in the air.

Apologies for having two Hollywood venues, the same night but heavy metallers were asking me, when are going to get to us and well I am not going to disappoint. So here it is my recommendation is Metal Skool at the Key Club.

Metal Skool have found a new home here and the area is benefiting because of it.

Come listen to some of the best metal covers performed by one of the best live acts to grace the stage in recent years and afterwards chill out and throw a few shapes or turn on the charm to tunes of Faster Pussycat front man Taime Downe spins out the best of the best before and after the main act�s set.

8:00 PM - 2:00 AM

Cool, hip young cousin of the Sky Bar just up the strip, this has the same incredible view of Hollywood but instead of a deck, there�s blue Astroturf beneath your feet. The terrace has telescopes for the voyeur in you or ping-pong tables to play on, while inside you can lie back on rattan chairs in a desert-landscaped lounge. And is that a live girl varnishing her nails in the aquarium behind the check-in desk? Not for faint-hearts or thin wallets. DJ Crash mixes the funkiest tunes from the past, present and future.
Get there early, because you want to avoid the lines. But remember it�s free. So there aren�t the same hassles like most clubs.

Right for those of you who are single and are perhaps too nervous to approach the opposite sex in a bar, there is a chance to meet the one or the one right now. A little advice this is a speeding dating event where the average age is +25 so please leave the cheesy one liners at the door and sure if all doesn�t go to plan it�ll be over in under three minutes, quite like my sex life, before you get the chance to impress upon on another beauty. Highly recommended for first timers and regulars to the scene or to anyone who want to brush off the cobwebs for the weekend ahead, this is the place to reinvent your mojo.
