SEE

Game of Thrones Is You-Know-Who dead? Alive? A zombie? A ghost? The sixth season of HBO’s fantasy epic will probably not answer this question, or any others, definitively, but it should feature plenty of political intrigue, sex, betrayal and dragons. Sundays beginning April 24, 9 p.m., HBO.

HEAR

Pentatonix These a capella Grammy winners feature flawless harmonies, creative arrangements and one seriously talented beatboxer. Expect a setlist split between originals from October’s eponymous album and covers of today’s top pop tracks. With Us the Duo, AJ. April 23, 8 p.m., $35-$85, Mandalay Bay Events Center.

Legendary Ladies From soul to indie rock, Las Vegas has no shortage of talented female musicians. Catch Jessica Manalo, Shayna Rain and more pay tribute to Aretha Franklin, Billie Holiday, Stevie Nicks and other luminaries, with proceeds benefitting Congo Justice. April 23, 8 p.m., $5, Velveteen Rabbit.

Chelsea Wolfe On the heels of last year’s harrowing, metal-drenched Abyss, the brooding, industrial/folk singer-songwriter headlines a show that should be as intense as it is intimate. With A Dead Forest Index. April 24, 9 p.m., $12-$14, Bunkhouse Saloon.

GO

Talk Radio Poor Richard’s Players executive director Maxim Lardent plays Barry Champlain, a Cleveland shock jock whose salty outlook will soon change forever. April 22, 23, 29 & 30, 8 p.m.; April 24 & May 1, 2 p.m.; $20; Fern Adair Conservatory, 3265 E. Patrick Lane.

Gold Butte Culture Walk Abundant with wildlife, ancient art, ghost towns and desert terrain, Gold Butte and its petroglyphs live at the mercy of visitors. An 11-mile tour with stewards of the land should remind us of its value. April 23, 5:45 a.m.-5:45 p.m., junction of Gold Butte Road & Nevada State Route 170.

A Taste of Shakespeare The Shakespeare Institute of Nevada marks April 23, observed date of both the Bard’s birth and death. Catch pop-up scenes and speeches from costumed characters throughout the day, including performances from Othello, Romeo and Juliet, Hamlet and more. Noon-6 p.m., $5, Downtown Container Park.
