Rina Sawayama at Pride Rocks PGH, June 8.
Japanese-British singer Rina Sawayama will perform in Pittsburgh on June 8 as part of Pride Rocks PGH. Dazed wrote, in 2017:
“Being east Asian and trying to be a pop singer in the UK where there is no precedent has sometimes been quite hard,” says London-based musician and model Rina Sawayama. “There aren’t many east Asian singers in the western pop world.”She will open for Toni Braxon, the event's headliner. Tickets for the standing-room only show are available online.
Sawayama’s music, which she describes as “cute R&B with a subliminal pop sheen”, takes influence from her early childhood in Tokyo, where she weaned herself on J-pop (having “literally missed the boat” on the Spice Girls). Her glistening track “Cyber Stockholm Syndrome”, the first from her planned album, tingles with a Justin Timberlake-esque guitar hook and spotlights anxiety in the digital age.

Zhang Yimou's 2018 film Shadow (影) opens at Waterfront, Regent Square on May 24.
The 2018 Zhang Yimou film Shadow (影) will play at the AMC Loews Waterfront theater, in addition to its run at the Regent Square Theater, from May 24. The distributor provides a summary:
With SHADOW, director Zhang Yimou (HERO, HOUSE OF FLYING DAGGERS) once again pushes the boundaries of wuxia action to create a film like no other, masterfully painting a canvas of inky blacks and greys punctuated with bursts of color from the blood of the defeated. In a kingdom ruled by a young and unpredictable king, the military commander has a secret weapon: a “shadow”, a look-alike who can fool both his enemies and the King himself. Now he must use this weapon in an intricate plan that will lead his people to victory in a war that the King does not want.Tickets for the AMC Loews Waterfront shows are available online via the theater. The theater is located at 300 West Waterfront Dr. in the Waterfront shopping complex in Homestead (map), across the Monongahela River from Greenfield, Squirrel Hill, and the rest of Pittsburgh.
Tickets and showtime information for the Regent Square Theater screenings is available online, too. The theater is located at 1035 S. Braddock Ave. in Regent Square (map).
