On Thursday, the Institute of Contem- porary Art, Miami debuts “Charles Gaines: 1992-2023,” a survey of the artist’s work that takes up two floors at the Design District mu- seum. The showcase includes more than 70 works spanning three decades and features two monumental pieces re-created after nearly two decades. The exhibit sheds light on a crucial shift in his career when his art gained heightened political and social signifi- cance by including things like the Black Pan- thers’ manifesto as well as texts by Franz Kafka and Frantz Fanon. 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday through March 17, 2024, at the Insti- tute of Contemporary Art, Miami, 61 NE 41st St., Miami; 305-901-5272; icamiami.org. Ad- mission is free. ASHLEY-ANNA ABOREDEN ▼ HOLLYWOOD PERFECT RECIPE The King of Bachata, Romeo Santos, takes his throne at the Hard Rock Live as part of his Formula Vol. 3 Tour. With more than two de- cades under his belt, Santos is recognized for his sound, which fuses bachata, R&B, hip- hop, and urbano. Throughout his long career, he has worked with artists like Justin Tim- berlake, Nicki Minaj, and Bad Bunny. His fifth album, Formula Vol. 3, has been certified four times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America and has more than 1.1 billion streams. 8 p.m. Thursday and Sunday, at Hard Rock Live, 1 Seminole Way, Holly- wood; 954-797-5531; myhrl.com. Tickets cost $95 to $235 via ticketmaster.com. SOPHIA MEDINA ▼ FORT LAUDERDALE MAKE ‘EM LAUGH After a Broadway revival in 2022 that started with Beanie Feldstein as Fanny Brice and for- mer Glee actress Lea Michele later recast as the lead, Funny Girl is now on tour, making its way to the Broward Center for the Perform- ing Arts through November 26. The classic musical is best known for making Barbra Streisand a household name after she starred in the original Broward run and the 1968 movie musical adaptation. The show follows Brice, a talented and comedic performer, from her early days in the vaudeville circuit to her rise to stardom, and explores her relation- ships, both personal and professional, and her journey to success despite societal expecta- tions. 8 p.m. Thursday through November 26, at the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, 201 SW Fifth Ave., Fort Lauderdale; 954-462- 0222; browardcenter.org. Tickets cost $45 to $121 via ticketmaster.com. ASHLEY-ANNA ABOREDEN FRI 11/17 ▼ DOWNTOWN EMOTIONAL TRUTHS Apparently, it’s news to everybody that the stories comedians tell onstage aren’t always entirely true. (And here I thought that was common knowledge.) Hasan Minhaj has been through the wringer after a New Yorker ex- posé about alleged fabrications during some of his stand-up specials. Now, he’s returning to South Florida on Friday as part of his Off With His Head Tour. (The tour’s title was an- nounced before the New Yorker story, but it seems appropriate considering the circum- stances.) Expect Minhaj to touch on topics like politics, parenting, and therapy while on- stage. 7 p.m. Friday, at the Adrienne Arsht Center of the Performing Arts, 1300 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; 305-949-6722; arshtcenter.org. Tickets cost $50 to $125. JOSE D. DURAN ▼ DOWNTOWN AT THE SUMMIT On Friday and Saturday, the Cleveland Sym- phony kicks off its 2023-24 residency at the Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts with a performance of Richard Strauss’ An Alpine Symphony, which used 100 musi- cians to vividly depict nature’s beauty. From mountains and waterfalls to a hunting scene, a storm, and a triumphant return, Strauss showcases the full power of symphonic writ- ing in this final tone poem, taking the art form to new heights. To achieve this grandeur, the orchestra will be joined by members of the New World Symphony with artistic director Stéphane Denève as conductor. 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, at the Adrienne Arsht Center of the Performing Arts, 1300 Biscayne Blvd., Mi- ami; 305-949-6722; arshtcenter.org. Tickets cost $29 to $189. ASHLEY-ANNA ABOREDEN ▼ SOUTH BEACH KEEP IT SHORT The 22nd edition of the Miami Short Film Festi- val kicks off Friday at O Cinema South Beach, ushering in three days of films that should keep your attention despite TikToks barely being able to do so. And while making a feature film is hard work, packing a compelling story in a short amount of time is not easy either. Friday’s opening screening explores the topic of “Tan- gled Emotions: Delving Into Deep Relation- ships.” Eight films from the United Kingdom, United States, and Canada will be shown, with the longest barely clocking in at 15 minutes. 8 p.m. Friday, at O Cinema South Beach, 1130 Washington Ave., Miami Beach; miamishort- filmfestival.com. Tickets cost $35.
