Looking to experience live music that tells a story? Head to the Cultural District, which features nine theaters and event halls where visitors can experience performance art every night of the week. The Benedum Center shows off Broadway plays and musicals, and later this month, you can learn the story of one of the greatest entertainers of all time: Michael Jackson.
