About Tonight

Bar Stools

Today DCist begins a new supplement to our weekly agendas. If you still don't have plans for tonight we've got an assortment of activities to get you off the couch and out enjoying all the area has to offer.

>> Jumping on the cherry tree bandwagon, Black Cat hosts The Cherry Blossom Jam. Rap artists Marsha Ambrosius, of Floetry fame, Chrisette Michelle, Frestile and MN8. [1811 14th St. NW, $22, Doors open at 8 p.m.]

>> Tonight is your penultimate chance to catch Haunted Prince: The Ghosts of Edwin Booth, a one-man show based on the writings of the famed 19th century actor and brother John Wilkes Booth. The performance is part of the Shakespeare in Washington festival. [Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, Nan Tucker McEvoy Auditorium, 750 Ninth Street, NW, Free, 7 p.m.]

>> Ali A. Allawi, a senior advisor to Iraq's prime minister, will discuss his book The Occupation of Iraq. Not surprisingly, he's not pleased with America's handling of the war. [Politics and Prose, 5015 Connecticut Ave NW, Free, 7 p.m.]

>> Think you're the next Ken Jennings? Hone your skills at Wonderland's weekly trivia night. [1101 Kenyon NW, Free, 7:30 p.m.]
