A string quartet performs medleys of 90s hip-hop classics under candlelight at the historic Rialto Theatre.
Candlelight: 90s Hip-Hop on Strings comes to The Rialto on Friday, November 13, with a string quartet playing medleys of 90s hip-hop classics. The set draws from The Fugees, Lauryn Hill, OutKast, Missy Elliott, Nas, Jay-Z, A Tribe Called Quest, Wu Tang Clan, 2Pac, The Notorious B.I.G. and Dr. Dre. It's a tribute experience, not affiliated with the artists or their estates.
Candlelight concerts are built around a specific format: a live musical performance in a notable space, played under the glow of candlelight. The Rialto Theatre, in Raleigh's Five Points neighborhood, is a historic 426-capacity room that opened in 1942 after a previous life as an A&P grocery store. It's still known for independent films, live music and community events.

The show runs 60 minutes, and doors open an hour before it starts. There's no entry once it begins, so you'll want to be inside before the music kicks off. Seating is assigned on a first-come, first-served basis within each zone, and anyone under 16 has to be accompanied by an adult. Tickets are $30.
