Music Jam tonight at Guns & Guitars and if you haven’t been there before, you’re missing out on a fun, crazy good time. If you love to jam to some good music in the company of really great people then 1085 Pioneer Blvd. is where you’ll want to be tonight at 6 p.m.
The Virgin Valley Theatre Group opens their 2015-16 season this weekend with “Angel Street” a Victorian Thriller. Show-times are Friday and Saturday, 7 p.m. at the Mesquite Community Theatre, 150 North Yucca Street. Tickets are $15.
Angel Street is the story of the Mannigham’s. Seemingly sweet and devoted husband, Jack Mannigham (Glen Bjornson), is insidiously driving his wife Bella (Jennifer Patrick) insane with kindness. Scotland Yard Inspector, Roughy played by new-comer Denis Feehan, visits Bella while investigating Jack for a murder committed 15 years prior. Inspector Roughy and Bella begin working together to build evidence against Jack.
Do Bella and Inspector Roughy succeed in bringing Jack to justice or does Jack succeed in driving poor Bella completely insane? What other secrets lie between the Jack and the domestic help? You’ll have to attend this Victorian Thriller to find out.
The We Care For Animals Pet Fest, sponsored by Golden West Casino, on Saturday will have dogs available for adoption from WCFA, BAM (Because Animals Matter) from Hurricane, Utah, PAWS (Providing Animals with Support) from St. George, Utah and Windy’s Ranch & Rescue from Overton, Nevada.
Don’t breed or buy; adopt and give a furry friend a second chance in your happy home.
Who doesn’t love to decorate pumpkins? The Virgin Valley Heritage Museum is hosting pumpkin carving and decorating at the museum on Saturday from 1-3:30 p.m.
Scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 20 from 5:30 until 7 p.m., Mesquite Citizens for Clean Indoor Air is hosting a hands-on social event.
The calendar is getting quite large, be sure to check it carefully so you won’t miss a thing that’s happening here in Mesquite this week. You can view the entire calendar online at www.mesquitelocalnews.com.
Send all your activities to tphilswife@aol.com and please remember to put “community calendar” in the subject line so your event notice doesn’t get lost in cyber space.
