MIDNIGHT MOVIE —
DeBartolo Performing Arts Center
100 Performing Arts Center,
Notre Dame, Ind.

Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt fans alike should pack the theater on this midnight showing of the 2009 film that explores the perils and perks of having a vivacious exciting girlfriend named Summer.

Brian Regan Live Comedy Tour
7 p.m.
Morris Performing Arts Center
211 N. Michigan St., South Bend
(574) 235-9190

The Morris gets a double recommendation this week: I’m not sure why they want to put so much in one weekend, but Brian Regan promises a “clean” comedy presentation so you might do a little more research and consider taking the kids to their first real standup show.

‘The Price Is Right Live’
7:30 p.m.
Morris Performing Arts Center
211 N. Michigan St., South Bend
(574) 235-9190

This sounds fun — I know a lot of people who have always wanted to be on “The Price Is Right,” and this could be their chance. Certainly, this version’s a lot more convenient to attend than making a trip to Hollywood for a taping.

Thursday, May 2
Velvet Jones performing for Cinco DeMayo
7 to 11 p.m.
Hacienda Mexican Restaurant
700 Lincolnway West, Mishawaka, Ind.
(574) 259-8541

Velvet Jones sounds like it could be a good band, as it seems to play around South Bend a lot. Cinco de Mayo celebrations at a Mexican place are a necessity — but I gotta tell ya, fellas, you’re gonna wanna change that lame Facebook web address. It makes me think, maybe you don’t!
