A record release show works best in a room where you can hear a lyric land. Diana Silvers picked one. Diana Silvers plays Dynasty Typewriter on Tuesday, Nov. 17, at 7 p.m., with tickets through OpenDate. The date was announced Oct. 20, and it is one of only two headline shows she has set to mark the new album. The other is Dec. 1 at Pete's Candy Store in Brooklyn.

The album is Daughter of Sorts, her second, due Nov. 13 on Capitol Records. That makes the Wilshire Boulevard show a first look at the songs on stage, four days after release and before most of the audience has had time to wear the record out.

For a lot of people the name still means a screen credit before a songwriting one. Silvers is best known as an actor: Booksmart, Ma, and Erin Naird on Space Force. The music has had a year to build its own following. Her debut album, From Another Room, came out on Capitol in November 2025, led by the singles "June" and "Airplane." Reviewers heard a quiet, folk-leaning record, the kind you put on to get a little time to yourself. That isn't a sound built for a club with a bar along one wall. It wants seats, a hush and a good PA.

Daughter of Sorts arrives Nov. 13; the stage debut is four days later on Wilshire.

That's what makes Dynasty Typewriter the right call. The building is the Hayworth Theatre, a Spanish-style house built in 1926 in Westlake. The city designated it a historic-cultural landmark in 1983. In 2017 it reopened as Dynasty Typewriter, a roughly 200-seat performance space run by former Hollywood Improv booker Jamie Flam. Most of its calendar is stand-up, podcasts, improv and odd theatrical experiments, and it has been the backdrop for plenty of comedy specials. Music is part of the mix too, and a room tuned for comics who need every word heard works for a singer whose songs depend on hers.

The size is also the practical point. At around 200 seats, this is about as close as Los Angeles will get to the new material, and it is a one-night home-city release show. If you mean to go, don't wait for the album to come out to decide.

A few notes before you buy. It's a Tuesday, and the 7 p.m. start is early by club standards. That's easy if you work on the Westside or in the Valley and plan around Wilshire traffic, harder if you're trying to get across town at 6:30. Tickets are sold only through the OpenDate link on our listing, so start there rather than with a reseller.

Listen to From Another Room before Nov. 13, then give Daughter of Sorts a few days when it lands. You'll walk into the Hayworth knowing which songs to wait for.
