THE FINAL FRONTIER

Aspiring thespians might be able to pick up a few tips from Pamela

Winslow’s one-woman show, “Change Happens: A Journey in Song,” which

tracks the former “Star Trek” actress’ journey through Broadway, film

and motherhood.

Marcieanna Jasko, the theatrical director of Costa Mesa’s Arts and

Learning Conservatory, co-produced the show.

Performances of “Change Happens” are Wednesday and Thursday at 8

p.m. at the Winifred Smith Hall at UC Irvine, as well as Friday at 8

SURF-PUNK SHOW

“Against The Grain: The Twin-Fin and Punk-Rock Collide” comes to

the headquarters of Hurley on Friday evening. The exhibition will

include twin-fin surfboards -- custom-designed by some of the top

shapers of the 1970s -- that have been air-sprayed by some of the

most well known figures of the punk movement.

Costa Mesa is the sixth of seven stops on the show’s tour. After

the final stop in San Diego, the boards will be auctioned off, with

proceeds going to the nonprofit group Save the Music.

The show begins at 6 p.m. and is open to the public. Hurley is

located at 1945 Placentia Ave., Costa Mesa. Call (949) 548-9376 for
