MISC: MICHAEL CARBONARO When the magical, merry prankster you’ve seen on TV’s The Carbonaro Effect first subbed in for Penn & Teller last summer, it was a dream come true for the 47-year-old performer from New York City. “In a lot of ways I’m a spawn of their work, and it still influences me so much,” Carbonaro says. “Penn & Teller always took an edgier approach, let you peek behind the curtain with that wry sense of humor.” The feeling you get at a P&T show is what Carbonaro aims for, and now that he’s returning to their room at the Rio for another Vegas run, he’s ready to incorporate different tricks and pranks to delight and amaze his audience—and tweak the show after learning a lot last time around. “Every night at this show in the Penn & Teller Theater, I’m going to make two people from the audience disappear onstage,” he says, “so if you’re looking to get rid of someone, keep that in mind.” Thursday-Sunday, 8 p.m., $59-$79, Penn & Teller Theater at Rio, ticketmaster.com. –Brock Radke

COMEDY: LESLIE JONES  They ought to put the network commentator jacket on her. One that’s tufted for the winter games, light and sporty for the summer games, with the smart-looking patch. Make it official, because every Olympic Games that passes us by that doesn’t include color commentary by Saturday Night Live vet Leslie Jones is not an Olympic Games worth watching. She humanizes the event: empathizing with the competitors and never failing to speak her mind—hilariously so—when something makes no damn sense. By the way, those are also the qualities that make her a terrific stand-up, too—a profession for which she’s already perfectly suited. By the way, NBC, if you’re listening: Book Leslie’s summer 2024 flight to the Paris games now. Don’t make me drag you in the socials. 8 p.m., $49+, Theater at Virgin, axs.com. –Geoff Carter

MUSIC: KALI UCHIS Readers be warned: Kali Uchis is almost too hot to handle. The Colombian-American pop star is one of the hottest crossover acts in music right now, with her 2018 debut album, Isolation, drawing guest vocals from Tyler, the Creator, Bootsy Collins and Steve Lacy, and her first Spanish-speaking album, 2020’s Sin Miedo (del Amor y Otros Demonios), earning a Grammy nomination for Best Música Urbana Album. She colors her sound with broad strokes of jazz, R&B and a luscious amount of soul, as heard on her latest album, March’s Red Moon in Venus, an aural treat of balmy love ballads, cosmic character and lush instrumentation that shows how far she has come musically. Cashmere Cat, Summer Walker and Omar Apollo also make appearances on the record, taking the sonic diversity to new heights while always keeping it Uchis. 8 p.m., $65+, the Chelsea, ticketmaster.com. –Amber Sampson
