ROBERT SCHEFMAN

Opening night reception from 6-8 p.m. for Robert Schefman’
s solo show, 
Secrets, at the David Klein Gallery’
s Detroit location (1520 Washington 
Boulevard). Schefman presents his recent series of paintings 
and drawings 
exploring the hidden world of secrets. Using social media as a device to 
reach a large audience, Schefman posted a request on social media asking 
followers to send him one personal secret that he could use as a subject or 
an element in his paintings. He received more than 100 anonymous secrets. 
Schefman explored the specific responses and began to develop the ideas 
for this series over the course of several years. There is also an Artist Talk 
on Saturday, Nov. 23, at 3 p.m. The show runs through Dec. 21.

Christopher Bond (Disenchanted, Evil Dead The Musical!) bring you the story

FOLLIES IN CONCERT
Theatre NOVA in Ann Arbor (410 W. Huron) 
presents a limited engagement of Follies in 
Concert by Stephen Sondheim and James 
Goldman. Sondheim’
s Broadway smash-hit 
musical concerns a reunion in a crumbling 
Broadway theater of the past performers 
of the “Weismann’
s Follies” that played 
in that theater between the World Wars. 
Follies is a glamorous and fascinating peek into a bygone era, and a clear-
eyed look at the transformation of relationships over time, with countless 
songs that have become standards, including “Broadway Baby,” “I’
m Still 
Here,” “Too Many Mornings,” “Could I Leave You?” and “Losing My Mind.” 
Performances are Thursday through Saturday at 8 p.m. and Sunday mati-
nees are at 2 p.m. Tickets are $30 for this limited engagement fundraiser 
for Theatre NOVA. For tickets, visit TheatreNOVA.org or call (734) 635-8450.
