Phil Gordon's State of Downtown Address Sheraton Phoenix Downtown Hotel Thu., October 16, 6:30pm Central Phoenix
It seems as though downtown Phoenix is finally taking shape as the vibrant place that the fifth-largest metropolis in the U.S. warrants. (Credit the long-entrenched arts community and local, independent businesses for fighting the good fight.) It even seems that, despite a few hiccups here and... More >>
"Room Service: Still Lifes by Eve Plumb" Opening Reception Bonner David Galleries Thu., October 16, 6:00pm-9:00pm Central Scottsdale
This is perhaps the only article in the history of her career which will not mention by name the sitcom on which actress Eve Plumb became famous. That’s because Plumb’s current career as a painter has produced work that frankly deserves to be admired not because it comes from a former... More >>

Rose, of Jim Rose Circus Sideshow fame, hosts this 14-city cavalcade of freaks backed by Dos Equis in support of the brewer's "The Most Interesting Man in the World" ad campaign.

Try Me Bicycle The Lost Leaf Thu., October 16, 9:30pm Central Phoenix
Imagine a coffee shop gig. There's dude or dudette strumming away on stage, pouring his or her heart into the mic in between sips of complimentary joe (the musician's payment for performing). It's a nice change from the sounds of grinding beans and your mate's babble about post-apocalyptic... More >>
Death Note II: The Last Name AMC Ahwatukee 24 Wed., October 15
more dates/times
Ahwatukee
Just about anything has a license to be extreme in the world of Japanese comics, especially when martial artists shoot fireballs from their hands and fifty-foot-tall robots are commonplace. Death Note is no exception. The comic is a dark tale about a Japanese high school student (and it is... More >>
The Producers Phoenix Theatre Wed., September 24, 7:30pm
more dates/times
Central Phoenix
There's a reason Mel Brooks’ The Producers has been a movie and a musical and a movie musical: “You can't see it all the first time you see it. You can't hear it all,” says Michael Barnard, producing artistic director at Phoenix Theatre. “I must have seen the original movie... More >>
The Rat Pack -- Live at the Sands Gammage Auditorium Tue., October 14, 7:30pm
more dates/times
Tempe
Frank Sinatra, Sammy Davis Jr., and Dean Martin were glorified hoods, or at the least gambled (and gamboled) with floozies and wiseguys, so if you’re looking for a PBS-style documentary about what really happened during the Rat Pack’s famously tawdry run of concerts at the Mob-owned... More >>
Arizona Exposition & State Fair Arizona State Fairgrounds Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Fri., October 10 until Sun., November 2 Central Phoenix
Way back in 1884, a small band of heat-addled Phoenicians put their hardscrabble noggins together and thunk up the Arizona Territorial Fair, which was essentially a reason to bust out of their stifling shotgun shacks after a season on the brink of madness. The diversions they installed at the... More >>
Busty Boobs & Thong Contest Margarita Rocks Every week Thursday, 9:00pm Tempe
If we had the self-awareness 18 years ago that we have now, we would have dropped more blouses at wet T-shirt contests. Alas, we were young and foolish, and had no real inkling of the limited shelf life of perky hooters. Life may be over for us, but still-bouncy ladies have a chance to get it... More >>

Haunt of the Living Dead Mesa Riverview Mon., October 27, 7:00pm
more dates/times
Mesa
Scoot closer, honey, and turn those lights down so we can tell you something. Legend has it that the government experimented with D-13 serum to turn dead soldiers into fighting machines, but instead they became man-eating zombies. The D-13, stored near Mesa Riverview, leaked into a local... More >>
"La Casa Murillo: A Life-Size Shadowbox" Heard Museum Daily from Fri., October 3 until Sun., January 11 Central Phoenix
AZ ain't Connecticut, so our lifestyle gurus are the anti-Martha. Namely, Patrick Murillo and Kathy Cano-Murillo, the latter of whom, Crafty Chica, has already been zazzing us up with her newspaper column, cruises, events, and new line of supplies. "La Casa Murillo: A Life-Size Shadow Box,"... More >>
Lappy Hour Duck and Decanter Third Thursday of every month, 4:00pm-7:00pm East Phoenix
When we told our dog about Lappy Hour, a monthly networking and adoption opportunity for canines and their humans, all he wanted to know was if there’d be any bitches there. Geez, Mr. Bisquit, evolve already. New Times caught up with Lappy Hour founder Vickie Rudd, who’s a bit more... More >>
Shadowlands Haunted Attraction Shadowlands Haunted Attraction Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday from Fri., September 26 until Sat., November 1 Mesa
If the Arizona Renaissance Festival and Dungeons and Dragons produced a love child that was then raised by a haunted house, it would end up resembling Shadowlands, a Halloween-themed scare-a-thon filled with costumes, role-playing, and a heavy dose of the heebie-jeebies. Visitors can... More >>
The Gauntlet Golfland SunSplash Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Thu., October 9 until Sat., November 1 Mesa
Golfland SunSplash, usually the second-happiest place on Earth, has reinvented itself for All Hallows with The Gauntlet, a 4,000-square-foot maze re-creating the bubonic plague of the 1300s. Horrifyingly, the Black Death left its 75 million victims with decaying flesh, dark, scabby spots all... More >>
Tom Wilson Tempe Improv Thu., October 16, 8:00pm
more dates/times
Tempe
When you're an actor best known for playing one of the biggest buffoon bullies in screen history -- a dimwitted tyrant with a penchant for messing up popular sayings and landing headfirst in manure -- you basically have two choices: one, succumb to the typecasting and spend the rest of your...

“The Chronicles of Narnia: The Exhibition” Arizona Science Center Daily from Sat., June 7 until Sun., October 26, 10:00am-5:00pm Central Phoenix
We're pretty sure that the prototypical fantasy geek and Christian apologist C.S. Lewis never imagined that his acclaimed children's series The Chronicles of Narnia would spawn something as scary-sounding as an "immersive marketing experience." So trust it to late capitalism to concoct such a... More >>
Late Nite Catechism III: 'Til Death Do Us Part Scottsdale Center for the Performing Arts Every week Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday Central Scottsdale
Patti Hannon returns as Sister in this sequel-to-the-sequel, which is full of fresh doctrine, "right off the net." More >>
Arizona Duck (DUKW) Tour Pleasant Harbor Marina at Lake Pleasant Daily, 10:00am
more dates/times
Peoria
Military intelligence, as the old saw goes, is an oxymoron. But the dudes in khaki got it right when they introduced the odd amphibious vehicle called the DUKW during WWII. The bastard spawn of a U-boat and a Hummer helped American troops survive beach attacks like Normandy by transporting... More >>
"Dia de los Plush" Red Hot Robot Every week Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday from Sun., October 12 until Fri., November 7 Central Phoenix
“Awwwwwwwwwwwww.” That’s what our 2-year-old is wont to say, followed by “So coot,” whenever he sees something that’s particularly charming to 2-year-old eyes. It’s what we’re saying as our charmed orbs scan the not-quite-cuddly creatures on display in... More >>
"Room Service: Still Lifes by Eve Plumb" Bonner David Galleries Daily from Thu., October 16 until Wed., October 29 Central Scottsdale

more dates/times
Central Phoenix
According to legend, the Diné (Navajo) underworld was a supercool place to live for the Holy People. The weather was perfect, food grew in loads, and the staples of Navajo art – such as rug weaving, silversmithing, and basketry – were cultivated and honed. In his... More >>
