Los Angeles:

#1 Top Weekend Party in Los Angeles: Solo Para Mujeres @ Gibson Amphitheatre-Universal Citywalk

Friday, November 20

Catch the special performance of Full Monty, Latin style. Sólo Para Mujeres came after the success of its predecessor, Sólo Para Hombres (For Men Only), a play that starred Lorena Herrera, among others, and which came about after Herrera's participation in the famous telenovela, Dos Mujeres, un Camino. Sólo Para Mujeres followed the same lines: muscular actors would dance, for an audience that consists mainly of women, wearing underwear only or suggestive clothing.
