And for those of you who want to immerse yourself in a little bit of artsy-fartsy culture, there’s plenty of stuff both inside and outside, theatrically speaking, to satisfy that most perverse of urges.
Big Fish. While its billing as a show for “everyone who loves musicals” might scare most sane people away, the source material is impressive. It’s adapted from Daniel Wallace’s 1998 novel and Tim Burton’s 2003 film about a dying man’s grown son trying to uncover the truth of his dad while sorting through the larger-than-life stories about him. Chance Theater, 6552 E. La Palma, Anaheim, (888) 455-4212; chancetheater.com. June 29-July 29. $41-$45.
