If any of your Sims have ever been musically inclined, you may have seen them wish to attend a play, or perhaps a symphony. But getting to actually attend one, has been easier said than done, since with the game's default values in a single-theater world, there's statistically one play every 6 weeks (and the same frequency for symphonies).
This mod aims to make it significantly easier to find a Friday night concert, symphony, or play, providing more variety for theater rabbitholes and making it easier to fulfill Sims' music-related wishes; especially since it doesn't seem like the game ever implemented theater concerts/plays on Saturdays/Sundays, despite what the game's tooltips and config files claim.
Note that even with this mod, it'd speed up the frequency of each of the three events to place additional theaters in a world.

• A few theater rabbitholes appear to never offer concerts, symphonies, nor plays, even when using this mod. Captain Jack's Theater (included with Sunlit Tides) seems to be affected by this.
• The mod does not currently increase the chance of stadium rabbitholes' concerts.

About Me
Sorting-talent fairy (Think Disney Fairies' talent system) who likes and strongly specialises in Sims 3. Good at building community lots, and turned out to have a talent for S3PE mods. From Norway. He/him, but I won't mind it at all about anyone mistaking me. Carried The Sims Wiki's maintenance of Sims 3 pages virtually singlehandedly in 2023. Likes good food. PFP: Lucky Luke.
WIP big projects:
• EP changelogs for British English v1.4 (April 2024)
• "60FPS EA splash screen in Sims 3" (April/May 2024; depends on whether there's a fair amount of players who aren't using the various "Skip intros" mods)
• "IMAG game files ran through OptiPNG for slightly better game performance" (March or Q2 2024; need to figure out if DeltaBuild0 images are fair game to post as a mod, and not just FullBuild0)
• "Turn supermarkets into department stores" (Likely cancelled, as SN elixirs didn't have separate code rows)
• "Sims 3 Seinfeld apartment based on an architect's chart from 2011" (Cancelled; Sims 3 simply couldn't accomodate the needed straight/diagonal walls)
Backup of some of my mods (External link). I understood the rules (Link) as that "About Me" 100% allowed such links, though the normal SoMe profile settings lacked GitHub or GitLab options.
