The Scene for December 7, 2012.

We're almost to the end of 2012; just a few more weeks. This last year has flown past.  But the end of the year has nothing to do with the theatre season; that's in full swing.  There are loads of shows to see; so many shows that the critics have been hard-pressed to keep up with them all.

Heck, we've been having trouble just keeping up with the critics!

And the thing is, there are even MORE shows opening this week than last week, so it's taken a little extra time to put it all together for you.


Here's what's happening in this week's late edition of The Scene:
