While heâs been a part of the inner workings of Mesa Theater for years, Rick Christensen still can be caught off guard by how other people see the venue.
For some, it was the place where they saw a favorite band. For others, it was where they were introduced to the âStar Warsâ saga during the spotâs movie theater days, said Christensen, general manager and talent buyer for Mesa Theater, 538 Main St.
With COVID-19 introducing another layer to Mesa Theaterâs history â because of the pandemic it temporarily closed in March, reopened months later in a limited capacity, and temporarily closed again in October â Christensen has been surprised at the support Mesa Theater has received.
