MISC: FREESTYLE LOVE SUPREME Lin-Manuel Miranda was blending hip-hop with improv in Freestyle Love Supreme before Hamilton and In the Heights conquered Broadway. The rapid-fire, different-every-night performance—co-created by Thomas Kail and Anthony Veneziale—allows a cast of nine talented artists to create an unpredictable, free-flowing musical experience flecked with comedy and audience participation. That might not sound like the typical Broadway-to-Vegas transplant, yet here it is, taking over the Venetian’s Summit Showroom for an extended run scheduled well into 2023. And here’s the kicker: Miranda joins the cast for two nights only on November 16 and 17. You’ll have to try the secondary market (or call in favors) to see the award-winning composer, lyricist and filmmaker hit the Vegas stage—those shows are sold out—but there are plenty of other opportunities to take in this spontaneous sensation. Wednesday-Friday, 8 p.m.; Saturday, 7 & 10 p.m.; Sunday, 7 p.m.; $45-$100, Summit Showroom, ticketmaster.com. –Brock Radke

MUSIC: POST MALONE It’s hard not to fall for Post Malone. Eventually, he gets to you. It’s just his nature. Some of us were in from the jump with “White Iverson”; plenty more got stuck singing along with “Circles” and “Better Now” and refuse to take them off the playlist. And if the songs from this year’s Twelve Carat Toothache haven’t resonated in the same way, there’s all those video clips of Posty’s dance breaks during arena tour stops. Just before Halloween, he took the good vibes to the next level by helping some fans with their baby’s gender reveal during an autograph sesh: “You’re going to be a girl dad!” And even though Vegas will get a double dose with his T-Mobile Arena concert and a show afterwards at Zouk at Resorts World, it probably still won’t be enough.

FOOD & DRINK: LAS VEGAS PIZZA FESTIVAL It’s not about the toppings, it’s about the style … and the variation of styles of pizza you can eat in Las Vegas. You can compare classic New York slices from Bonanno’s New York Pizza Kitchen with the “Grandma” from Brooklyn’s Best Pizza & Pasta or the Di Fara Special from Dom DeMarco’s. There’s the San Gennaro Square from the Vento family behind Carmine’s Pizza Kitchen, a generational local favorite, and the award-winning Sicilian crafted by John Arena and Chris Decker of Metro Pizza, another local institution. Vincent Rotolo’s Good Pie and Tony Gemignani’s Pizza Rock demonstrate different styles every day, while Chris and Michael Palmieri of Naked City Pizza Shop keep it authentically Buffalo all the time. All of these varieties and so much more will be waiting for you to sample at the returning Las Vegas Pizza Festival at the Industrial Event Space just off Sahara and I-15. 1-4 p.m., $75-$125, 2330 S.

Sunday, November 13

PARTY: ART OF THE WILD: FATBOY SLIM Wynn’s Art of the Wild never fails to bring a diverse assortment of DJs, producers and performers to Vegas, but what truly sets the weekend festival apart are its surprises. And a set by big beat pioneer Norman Cook, better known by his stage name Fatboy Slim, is certainly that. Odds are good that some of AOTW’s attendees hadn’t even been born when the English DJ, producer and musician broke big in the late 1990s, but even if that’s the case, they’re sure to know his hits, if only by their hooks. Right about now/the funk soul brother! You can go with this, or you can go with that! I got to praise you like I should! But even if young attendees don’t recognize “The Rockafeller Skank,” “Weapon of Choice” and “Praise You” from a TikTok or something, Cook will win them over; the man’s been getting parties started since time immemorial, and he’s pretty good at it. Montreal’s Blond:ish (Vivie-ann Bakos) and Dresden’s Purple Disco Machine (Tino Piontek) complete what’s sure to be a new sensation for some and a welcome return for others. November 13, 1 p.m., 3-day pass $100. Encore Beach Club, wynnsocial.com. –Geoff Carter
