Ani DiFranco, Gracie & Rachel, Jocelyn Mackenzie, Holly Miranda

The Underground 820 Hamilton Street, Charlotte, NC
$30
Bursting upon the indie-rock scene with her self-titled debut in 1990, Ani DiFranco was the real deal — an inspirational performer, a take-no-shit feminist, activist role model and a genre-bending artist who drew equally from searing folk protest anthems and candid singer-songwriter confessionals. Her latest eclectic R&B-infused LP Revolutionary Love tackles sexism and the assault on reproductive rights with anger and compassion, and gives voice to our deepest convictions on a personal and political level.

‘The Polar Express’ in Concert

Recurring
Belk Theater at Blumenthal Performing Arts 130 N Tryon St, Charlotte, NC
$23
On Christmas Eve, a young boy who doubts the existence of Santa Claus is whisked aboard a mysterious locomotive bound for the North Pole. The train defies gravity on teetering bridges and slides over ice fields, while both the conductor and Santa sound like Tom Hanks. Back in 2004, the film’s motion-capture animation was groundbreaking. Today, it’s charming, even though characters seem a bit off. The Charlotte Symphony provides the soundtrack for this Christmas classic.
