BEVERLY, MA — Whether you are looking for cinematic nostalgia, genre-bending rock, or a trip to a "galaxy far, far away," downtown Beverly has you covered. The Cabot and its intimate sibling venue, Off Cabot Comedy & Events, have released their lineup for the week of April 27, featuring a diverse array of local talent and national touring acts.
The historic Cabot Theatre kicks off the weekend on Friday, May 1, by transporting audiences back to 1986. A special 40th-anniversary screening of the coming-of-age classic Stand By Me will begin at 7:00 p.m.
On Saturday night, the energy shifts to high-concept rock with Pink Talking Fish. This "hybrid tribute" fusion act is known for seamlessly weaving together the catalogs of Pink Floyd, The Talking Heads, and Phish, creating a unique sonic experience for jam-band enthusiasts.
The weekend closes on a sophisticated note with Symphony by the Sea. On Sunday, May 3, the ensemble presents its season finale, "Sketches of Spain," starting at 3:00 p.m.
Just around the corner, Off Cabot continues to serve as Beverly’s hub for improv and emerging talent. The week starts on Monday with "Search Your Feelings," a Star Wars–inspired improv workshop designed for "aspiring galactic knights."
Mid-week highlights include:
The weekend at Off Cabot features a celebratory hometown performance by Froggy & The Friendship on Friday, followed by a Saturday night set from The Voice finalist Morgan Myles. The week wraps up with a touch of whimsy and flair as The Betsi Feathers present their newest burlesque production, "Wonka-Lesque," on Sunday evening.
