Based on Maggie O’Farrell’s 2020 New York Times bestselling novel, the story explores the im- pacts of the tragic death of their 11-year-old son, which ultimately leads to the creation of Shakespeare’s play, Hamlet. 5:15 p.m. at Coral Gables Art Cinema, 260 Aragon Ave., Coral Gables; 786-472-2249.

SOPHIA MEDINA FRI 11/28 ▼ DOWNTOWN MIAMI TO HEART Mexican singer-songwriter Christian Nodal brings his Pa’l Cora Tour to the Kaseya Center in support of his last two EPs and his latest album, ¿Quién + Como Yo?, released in May 2025. The three-time Latin Grammy- winning star is best known for blending mariachi and norteño to create his distinctive sound. He broke through in 2017, after the release of his debut studio album, Me Dejé Llevar, and in 2021, he entered the Billboard Hot 100 with “Botella Tras Botella,” a collaboration with rapper Gera MX that became the first regional Mexican song to land on the chart. Friday night, expect to hear his biggest hits, including “Adiós Amor,” “Ya No Somos Ni Seremos,” and “De Los Besos Que Te Di.” 8 p.m. at the Kaseya Center, 601 Biscayne Blvd., Miami; 786-777-1000; kaseyacenter.com. Tickets cost $65 to $241 via ticketmaster.com. SOPHIA MEDINA ▼ MIAMI BEACH IN BLOOM For years, Elena Rose’s fingerprints have been all over Latin pop’s biggest hits. She’s the writer behind songs performed by Rauw Alejandro, Jennifer Lopez, and Selena Gomez, but her track “Alma” has finally pushed her into the spotlight in her own right. Her recordings lean into smoky pop melodies, the kind that make her shows feel closer to intimate storytelling sessions rather than hyper-choreographed productions. 8 p.m. at the Fillmore Miami Beach, 1700 Washington Ave., Miami Beach; 305-673-7300; fillmoremb.com. Tickets cost $47 to $86.50 via ticketmaster.com. CAROLINE VAL SAT 11/29 ▼ HOLLYWOOD ROCKIN’ AROUND The Seminole Hard Rock is starting its own holiday tradition, transforming its pool into a winter wonderland with seasonal decor, col- orful lights, and eye-catching displays. At the Hard Rock the Holidays pop-up, you’ll immerse yourself in the festive ambiance as you enjoy sweet treats, snap photos with Santa, and watch the Guitar Hotel’s synchronized lights blink to the tune of family-favorite holiday classics. 6:30 p.m. at the Seminole Hard Rock, 1 Seminole Wy., Hollywood; 866-502-7529; ca- sino.hardrock.com. Tickets cost $45 via ticket- master.com. SOPHIA MEDINA ▼ HOLLYWOOD KING OF DEMBOW Seeing your favorite artist in 4K is great and all, but it’s not every day that you get to see a genre innovator like El Alfa live in South Flor- ida. The Dominican rapper known as the King of Dembow is credited with expanding the genre’s global reach. Accordingly, his con- certs feel like indoor street parties and draw from almost two decades of releases. You’ll surely hear bangers like “La Mamá de la Mamá,” Bad Bunny collab “La Romana,” and, yes, “4K.” 9 p.m. at Hard Rock Live, 1 Seminole Wy., Hollywood; 954-797-5531; casino. hardrock.com. Tickets cost $60 to $125 via tick- etmaster.com. CAROLINE VAL SUN 11/30 ▼ COCONUT GROVE SUNDAY BRUNCH Breaking bread at a historic estate already sounds like a dreamy Sunday, but the ethos behind The Sow Project’s “Brunch With Pur- pose” series makes this meal even sweeter. Chefs Ben Vaughn and Dave Krog bring sea- sonal menus to Vizcaya Village as part of a broader mission: supporting a grassroots cu- linary initiative offering free training, wrap- around services, and career pathways for underemployed and unemployed South Flo- ridians. Bon appétit. 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. at Viz- caya Museum & Gardens, 3250 S. Miami Ave., Coconut Grove; 305-250-9133; vizcaya.org. Tickets cost $65 via eventbrite.com. ASHLEY-ANNA ABOREDEN ▼ DESIGN DISTRICT SO YESTERDAY If your eyes need a break from Miami Art Week’s endless logos and LED screens, Opera Gallery Miami has an antidote. “In Dialogue With Color: Mid-20th Century to Now” explores artists’ use of color in modern and contempo- rary art, with the pieces featured in the exhi- bition spanning eight decades. They’re curated by color — green, blue, red, pink, or- ange, and black and white — and include Keith Haring’s Untitled (orange) and Yayoi Kusama’s Fire (red). The exhibition will be on view well past Miami Art Week, through Jan- uary 5, 2026. 11 a.m. at Opera Gallery Miami, 151 NE 41st St., Miami; 305-868-4548; opera- gallery.com. Admission is free. Caroline Val MON 12/1 ▼ WESTCHESTER JAZZ NIGHT Bassist, composer, and bandleader Mikailo Kasha gives you a reason to leave home on a Monday with this performance, part of the JazzMIA Nights series. Playing alongside saxo- phonist Dayna Stephens, pianist Connor Rohrer, and drummer Jon Ziegler, Kasha will celebrate the release of his latest album, We Have Jazz At Home. Still not convinced? Per- haps this will sway you: Scotty Barnhart of the Count Basie Orchestra considers the bandleader to be among “the top one percent of bassists worldwide.” High praise, indeed. 7:30 p.m. at the Westchester Cultural Arts Cen- ter, 7930 SW 40th St., Miami; 305-226-0030; jazzmia.org.
