How else to thank the revelers who regularly fill the outrageous, sexy parties at House of Yes than with a free night of the best entertainment? This epic dance party will fill two rooms with pulsing house music and drinks, while aerialists spin from the ceiling, go-go dancers take the stage and enticing creatures appear around every corner. Crazy costumes and sexy accessories are always welcome (and will help you move to the front of the line).

MUSIC

The Music of John Williams: From Spielberg to Star Wars

Carnegie Hall, 154 W. 57th St.
$25-$122

Some of the most memorable scores in movie history came from composer John Williams, who contributed music to the likes of “ET,” “Raiders of the Lost Ark” and “Jurassic Park”— as well as the “Star Wars” films, from the originals all the way through the new blockbuster “The Force Awakens.” On Friday night, the New York Pops will tug your heartstrings with selections from his iconic compositions in a two-hour concert.

Brooklyn Folk Festival
April 8-10
St. Ann’s Church, 157 Montague St.

Folk music isn’t any one kind of sound, and the eighth annual festival will bring together not just the various regions of the U.S. but international bands, too, with 30 acts over three days including ragtime, jazz, country, traditional Irish music and more. If you’re feeling the political angst of the country, check out Saturday’s protest song concert, and there are also film screenings, dancing and more.

Misty Copeland became the first black principal ballerina with American Ballet Theatre in 2015, a huge step for dancers of color who are largely outnumbered in the industry. To honor her achievement, and to help pave the way for future minority dancers, the Dance Theatre of Harlem is putting on a one-night-only tribute performance called Black Ballerina Magic as part of its four-night residency at New York City Center. The New York City Ballet, Houston Ballet and ABT will also be represented.

A little compassion goes a long way, as this worldwide holiday will remind us in Herald Square this Sunday. Over 40 charitable organizations will be on site and happy to have you loan your talents, time (plant a tulip!) or resources. But the giving goes both ways, with free yoga sessions, or pick up some tips at Adrian Grenier’s Mobile Kitchen Classroom, plus KIND snacks and live entertainment from the VH1 Save the Music Foundation.
