Whiplash in Concert
J.K. Simmons plays a ferocious jazz teacher in this Miles Teller-starring masochistic music thriller. Catch a screening of Whiplash at the Saban Theatre with an 18-piece jazz band—rushing or dragging?—conducted by the film’s composer, Justin Hurwitz. You’ll have three chances to catch this 10th anniversary concert and screening—not quite my tempo—with one show on February 7 and a pair on February 8. Presumably no chairs will be thrown.
