Explanation

To solve this question, the user needs to have a good understanding of English grammar and articles.

In the given sentence, we need to fill in the blanks with appropriate articles.

The definite article 'the' is used to refer to a specific noun, while the indefinite article 'a/an' is used to refer to any one of a group of nouns.

Now, let's go through each option:

A. the - the: This option is correct. The first blank requires 'the' article because the speaker is referring to a specific date. The second blank also requires 'the' article because it refers to a specific show.

B. the - a: This option is incorrect. The first blank requires 'the' article because the speaker is referring to a specific date. However, the second blank should also have 'the' article because it refers to a specific show, not just any show.

C. the - Ø: This option is incorrect. The first blank requires 'the' article because the speaker is referring to a specific date. However, the second blank should not be left blank as it requires an article.

D. Ø - Ø: This option is incorrect. Both blanks require an article because the speaker is referring to a specific date and a specific show.

Therefore, the answer is: A. the - the.
