Snag some tickets and watch the Maine Celtics take on the Sioux Falls Skyforce this weekend. The Saturday night game is Girl Scout Night at the Expo, so the forecast might be calling for cookies.

‘One Man, Two Guvnors’
7:30 p.m. Saturday, 7 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 31. Shows run through Feb. 11. The Hill Arts, 76 Congress St., Portland, $40. thehillarts.me
Here’s a chance to see an award-winning Broadway comedy starring Dustin Tucker as main character Francis Henshall. “One Man, Two Guvnors” is the hilarious tale of an unemployed musician who gets hired by two men, one a gangster and the other an upperclass dolt. Things quickly go off the rails as Henshall desperately tries to ensure his two bosses don’t cross paths, and that’s just the tip of the iceberg in a show that’s as hot as the winter is cold. A handful of performances aren’t sold out yet, so grab tickets while you can.
