SEE

Selma Celebrate Martin Luther King Jr. Day by watching this powerful movie about one of King’s greatest accomplishments, the 1965 voting-rights march from Selma to Montgomery in Alabama. Now playing.

The Nightly Show Comedian Larry Wilmore takes over The Colbert Report’s old time-slot with this Jon Stewart-produced panel-discussion show, which promises a diverse range of voices making fun of current events. Monday-Thursday, 11:30 p.m., Comedy Central; premieres January 19.

HEAR

Dilated Peoples Evidence, Rakaa and Babu opened for Jurassic 5 at the Cosmo pool in July, but this time LA’s veteran hip-hop trio gets a headlining set to do its full, melodious thing. With Ekoh, NOVN, Mr. Ebranes, Cash Colligan; January 16, 8 p.m., $18-$22, Fremont Country Club.

CHEER

UNLV VS. New Mexico The Runnin’ Rebels’ clashes with the Lobos are typically tight, but UNLV will have to play like the team that toppled then-No. 3 Arizona—not the one that fell to Reno at home—to keep this one close. January 21, 8 p.m., $20-$110, Thomas & Mack Center.

GO

Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat It’s not a dress, thank you very much. It’s a dreamcoat. The musical about Israel’s favorite son is so legit, almost the entire thing is sung. January 20-25, Tuesday-Sunday, 7:30 p.m.; Saturday & Sunday, 2 p.m., $28-$119, Smith Center’s Reynolds Hall.
