Weekend Outlook

The first weekend back after winter break was likely filled with inaugural activities and protests. This weekend, it’s time to get back into your usual schedule. Kick it off with a night of dancing, then relax for the rest of the weekend with a show at the theater and a museum visit.

Friday

DJ Felix Jaehn at A.I.

This show is perfect for getting some friends together to dance. Felix Jaehn, who is best known for his 2015 remix of the song “Cheerleader” by OMI, will be in D.C. Friday night to play his original tracks. His original songs combine instrumental sounds with danceable beats. Popular tracks by this young artist include “Shine” and “Ain’t Nobody,” which have energetic rhythms to keep you dancing all night.

A.I., 1720 I St. NW. 10 p.m. $15-$25. 18 and older.

Saturday

‘Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?’

In the mood to sit back and relax while enjoying a show? The play “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” opened Jan. 21 at Ford’s Theatre – a noteworthy performance originally written by critically acclaimed playwright Edward Albee. The story follows two couples at a party where casual socializing escalates into intense sparring.

Ford’s Theatre, 511 10th St. NW. 2 p.m. or 7:30 p.m. $15-$62.

Sunday
