The World Stage
Near
Los Angeles 60 Irvine 40
The events below fall within the miles distance listed above.
Founded as a collaborative art work in progress by Billy
Higgins and Kamau Daaood, The World Stage has grown into a
sacred space. Here, jazz occupies an important position within
the fabric of the community, and a jazz driven cultural revolution
continues to unfold around The World Stage. From Sunday to
Thursday, $5 gets you into workshops that run like informal jam
sessions. On a recent Sunday night, women served dinner from
the kitchen. Mondays still belong to drummers, that session formerly
run by Higgins. Tuesdays belong to vocalists, and
Wednesdays the Anansi Writers' Workshop convenes.
