Jacksonville Today Arts and Culture Editor Matt Shaw shares his top 3 arts and culture picks for the weekend.
Saturday
Menopause The Musical
Moran Theater | Downtown Jacksonville
Billed as the hilarious celebration of Women and The Change, Menopause The Musical is one of the most successful off-Broadway productions of the last two decades (the Las Vegas production has been going strong since 2006). The Orlando-born musical, with lyrics and music by Jeanie Linders, follows four mature women as they shop for lingerie at Bloomingdales. The FSCJ Artist Series presents two performances of Menopause the Musical on Saturday, 3 p.m. and 7 p.m., at the Moran Theater inside the Jacksonville Center for the Performing Arts. Tickets and more info here.

Beaches Fine Arts Series Presents: Richard & Peter John Stoltzman
St. Pauls-by-the-Sea Episcopal Church | Jacksonville Beach

Virtuosic players, the pair are as comfortable as a combo as they are fronting a full orchestra. Each concert in this year’s series includes a visual art installation showcasing the work of a local or regional artist. A reception for the work of Jax-based fine art photographer Scott Blake is held on Sunday night after Richard and Peter John Stoltzman’s performance.
