• The Harvard-Radcliffe Gilbert and Sullivan Players are giving you two chances to see Gilbert and Sullivan’s “The Mikado (or The Town of Titipu)” at Harvard this weekend. The play, which was arguably the most popular of their works, will be shown tonight and tomorrow afternoon. Tonight is the “creative black tie opening” at 8, while tomorrow will be a “milk & cookies matinee” at 2 p.m. Both showings will take place in Agassiz Theatre at 10 Garden St. in Cambridge.
• Grammy winner Christian McBride comes to Columbia University’s Miller Theatre on Broadway and 116th St. this Saturday. The Christian McBride Band, which consists of Ron Blake on sax, Terreon Gully on drums, Geoffrey Keezer on piano and McBride on bass, will be playing songs off of its most recent album Live at Tonic. The show, which will feature special guests, starts at 8 p.m.
• Did prelim studying keep you from seeing your favorite Cornell a capella group this semester? Have no fear, the Tigertones are here! Well, they’re not here; they’re at Princeton. But that’s the next best thing. Check out their fall show “Tigertones A Capella Jam” tomorrow night at 8 in Richardson Auditorium in Alexander Hall. The BodyHype Dance Company will perform as well.
• The Penn Museum hosts its “FREE Holiday Family Extravaganza: 12th Annual Peace Around” this Sunday from 1:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. This year’s theme of “Holiday Passport to Cultures” will teach museum goers all about how people around the globe celebrate the holidays in different ways. There will be art projects, singing, games, food and great deals at the museum’s shops. So much to do and so little time!
