ROBERT SCHEFMAN
Opening night reception from 6-8 p.m. for Robert Schefman’

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.

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.
