Phoenix Q&A

I recently saw a production of Les Mis at the Phoenix Theatre Company and noticed that the sound seemed to be mostly pre-recorded. I'm used to seeing either high-end productions with extensive use of live microphones or local productions with limited use of microphones. I'm wondering if this is a common practice in local productions or if it was just a choice for this particular show.

I visited Moon Valley nursery and was shocked by the prices of the plants. I couldn't afford to buy anything.

I'm an avid cyclist and recently had a weird experience while riding in a bike lane in Phoenix. I was following a slower cyclist and overtook them on the left, but they got upset and told me to fuck off. I'm not sure if I did anything wrong or if this is just a case of road rage. I'd appreciate some perspective from fellow cyclists in Phoenix, especially those familiar with local traffic laws.

I'm an Argentine parent of two living in Phoenix for nine years. My kids are in school, and we like to spend our weekends exploring the area. I'm concerned about the high water bills in Goodyear, and I'm wondering if anyone else is experiencing the same issue. I've noticed that our water bill has been steadily increasing over the past few months, and I'm not sure what's causing it. Is it just me, or are other people in Goodyear seeing similarly high water bills?

I signed up for the SRP Bring Your Own Thermostat (BYOT) program last summer, but now that it's still happening in October, I'm starting to wonder what's putting so much pressure on the grid.

My doctor wants me to find a compounding pharmacy that carries mounjaro (tirzepatide) and is semi-affordable.

I just got an envelope in the mail from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid, but when I opened it, I found my City of Phoenix water bill inside. Has anyone else received their water bill in an envelope from the wrong organization this month?

I'm looking for stores that sell Chaco sandals besides REI. I'm an Italian retiree who's been living in Phoenix for 10 years and I'm interested in finding a good pair for my upcoming hikes.

I'm an accounting student at PVCC and I've been taking online classes for two years. I'm considering switching to in-person classes because I feel overwhelmed by the online workload and I want to experience the college life more.

I'm excited to try out Harkins Secret Cinema in Phoenix, but I'm not sure what movie they'll be showing tomorrow. I've heard rumors that it might be a PG-rated film, possibly Sense and Sensibility?

I'm looking for advice on uninterrupted running paths in Phoenix for marathon training. I'm used to running in Houston parks with paved paths, bathrooms, and water available, but I'll take whatever I can get. I'm interested in finding a place to do my 17-21 mile long runs.

Someone sent me this video, was there a water main break?

I'm trying to catch an elotero in Maryvale to show my family the local experience, but I'm not sure when they're usually out. We're looking for a convenient time, and I've forgotten the schedule since I haven't lived in the area for a while.

I'm from Maine and used to hiking hard stuff, so a challenging hike with a view is always worth it. I'll have a car but would prefer to stay in within an hour of the city because I am there for a conference. I'll be staying downtown for 2 days and then in Scottsdale, for the rest of the week.

My father is 83 and showing early stages of dementia. He's calling me at 7am, thinking it's 7pm, or vice versa. Forgetting things seconds after he told me, etc. I want to look into getting him a home, but things are extremely expensive and also complicated.

We've had some cooler days lately, and my kids are complaining about the pool temperature. I'm wondering when it's time to stop using the pool heater and let them get used to the cooler water.

My sister is considering inpatient care for severe depression and bipolar disorder. She needs a reliable facility with good staff and accommodations.

We're trying to decide between a Kia Carnival and a Honda Odyssey for our family car, and I've heard mixed things about the Odyssey's AC performance in Phoenix's hot summers.

I work for a local non-profit that assists with street outreach in Phoenix. We'd like to be more active in the Maryvale area but need to know specific areas to assist the best we can.
