By Jon Regardie, Sean P. Thomas and Nicholas Slayton cused collective Creep L.A. is back for its fifth year, this time with a 75-minute excursion dubbed Haus of Creep.

The pop-up installation in Row DTLA is a multimedia experience full of shocks and ghastly sights. It also, according to its own description, is a “darkly satirical and terrifying send-up of social media-driven culture,” so think twice about that Instagram post. The experience includes 20 actors and a puppet show in a 5,000-square-foot space. There’s also a lounge, so when not jumping in terror, guests can enjoy beer and wine.

hat better way to prepare for Halloween than to watch other people in masks and fancy garb toss one another around the squared circle? Downtown’s resident wrestling show returns this fall with a bill dubbed “Fiesta Fantasma.” As usual, a whole cascade of grapplers will enter the ring, including Rey Fenix, Pentagon Jr., the sleazy Joey Ryan, the energetic Lucha Chickens and the ultra popular Li’l Cholo. This will be interspersed with burlesque dancers such as Michelle L’amour and Karis, and there will be a consistent, ribald comedy track from the announcers. Pro tip: Unless you want to get hit with 200 pounds (or more!) of wrestler, when the security guards say move, you move.

He’s also in demand, as evidenced by his 38-city “Take It Down Tour.” Although his special “Disgraceful” only arrived last year, Segura already has enough new material for a fresh show, and he’s dropping by the lovely Orpheum on Broadway to riff on scenes from his life, everything from a conversation on an airplane, to becoming obsessed with a television show and his two children.

Ahmanson Theatre n his Tony Award-winning one-man show, John Leguizamo leads audiences on a wildly entertaining and thought-provoking tour through 3,000 years of an often-overlooked past. Latin History for Morons is animated and educational as the veteran of the screen and the stage embarks on a rapid-fire search to help his son find a hero to feature for a school project. The 110-minute show, directed by Tony Taccone, holds impersonations, a blackboard and even a reading list. It’s the rare production where audiences not only laugh, but leave smarter.

At 135 N. Grand Ave. or centertheatregroup.org.

and the world premiere of his newest work is taking place in Downtown Los Angeles on Sept. 21 (earlier dates are previews). A Play Is a Poem, directed by Neil Pepe, is a collection of five one-acts set in different locations across the country. The scenes he explores include a New York City tenement, the Los Angeles office of a private eye and a gazebo in Natchez, Mississippi. Coen Brothers movies have always stood out for their complex and unique characters, so expect similar traits — but this time in person.

MIKE BIRBIGLIA’S THE NEW ONE

Oct. 26-Nov. 3 at Grand Park he Day of the Dead is a chance to honor and remember late family and friends, and once again Grand Park is hosting a large-scale celebration for it over nine days. The park’s annual event features a series of altars designed by local artists set up around the 12-acre space.

Each one is done in a different style, including Oaxacan influences. The whole event kicks off with the Noche de Ofrenda (Night of Offerings) where people can bring flowers and candles to remember loved ones and see traditional dances and songs. There will once again be a community altar for Angelenos who wish to contribute to the artistic display.

Oct. 23-Nov. 24 at the Ahmanson Theatre he Ahmanson holds its second consecutive humor-tinged solo show, this time with the comedian whose resume boasts a selection of stage works, including the noted Sleepwalk With Me (it was also a film). Birbiglia’s new show, directed by Seth Barrish (who helmed the recent Broadway run), recounts the life changes and challenges that he faces after the birth of his daughter — the figurative “new one.” The approach is warm and personal, funny and poignant, with Birbiglia adopting a self-effacing delivery. Just be sure to leave expectations at home, as The New One packs some left turns and surprises.

RESILIENCE: PHILIP GUSTON IN 1971 Opens Sept. 14 at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles njoy the cartoonish and critical works of Philip Guston at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles. In 1971, then-abstract artist Guston decided to change his style and try something different, pulling inspiration from the politics and turmoil of the late 1960s and early 1970s. Resilience is the first solo show of Guston’s work in Los Angeles in more than four decades. The show features both his “Roma” paintings series and his “Nixon” drawings, the latter of which portrays a caricature of the former president in a series of silly situations. The two series are dissimilar, but show Guston experimenting with his style and refining his skills in new areas.
