Tonya Harding, the Pacific Northwest’s ultimate bad girl, is back in the spotlight. It has been 14 years since the notorious figure skaters’ drama–the Tonya Harding/Nancy Kerrigan leg-whacking episode— took place, but Tonya gets to relive it all over again on stage.
The story has been turned into a rock opera that you can catch in downtown Portland at the World Trade Center. “Tonya & Nancy: The Rock Opera” continues Thursdays through Sundays until March 8. Tickets for the “whack around the world” show are $20-$25 and are available online.
I am sure this concept could become a trend. I can see the “Britney Spears: The American Tragedy” opera coming out any day now.
