The Empire Theatre is hosting a live trivia contest for “nerd culture” enthusiasts presented by comedian and actor Bruce Campbell (so you know they’re not messin’ around).Known for his role as Ash Williams in Sam Raimi’s Evil Dead franchise, Campbell will facilitate multiple rounds of questions before crowning the Last Fan Standing champion. While entering the theater, audience members will each be given a clicker to compete as contestants on the game show. After the first round, four of the highest-scoring contestants will be invited on stage to battle one another for two or more rounds.Aside from his role in the cult classic horror film, Campbell was a regular on the USA network’s Burn Notice and guest starred on FX’s series Fargo. Currently Campbell is reprising his Evil Dead role for the upcoming third season of the Starz series Ash vs. Evil Dead.$29.30-$39.50, Sat Feb. 24, 8pm, Charline McCombs Empire Theatre, 226 N.
