Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...
Get out your multi-colored bell bottoms out and have the time of your life, because you’ve only just begun to live … OK that’s enough. The Metropolis Performing Arts Centre takes us in the wayback machine for back-to-back performances. First with ABBA Salute singing ABBA hits — sing along and dance along encouraged (Friday). Then, playwright and singer Lisa Rock and her band perform “Close to You: The Music of the Carpenters” (Saturday). Both shows at 8 p.m. at Metropolis Performing Arts Centre, 111 W. Campbell St., Arlington Heights; $25-$35; 847-577-2121, metropolisarts.com
