Check out these events going down in Charlotte and the surrounding area this weekend— as selected by the folks at Creative Loafing.

Friday, Jan. 16

Food: Enjoy eating typical Japanese dishes and sushi (without spending too much money!) at Sapporo Bistro.

Theater: Clench your teeth and hope it’ll all be ok (for actors who act as hostages) in performances of Someone Who’ll Watch Over Me at Carolina Actors Studio Theatre.
