Pick Of The Week

The Leftover Last Waltz
5pm at Cain’s Ballroom, 423 N. Main St.

It’s a Tulsa tradition like no other. Swing over to Cain’s on Sunday afternoon, after the turkey’s been carved and the gravy guzzled, for a second Thanksgiving meal with an all-star band of Tulsa players as they recreate the soundtrack from “The Last Waltz.” The best part? Your ticket price goes to support Tulsa Public Schools. —Matt Carney
