The Scene for March 22, 2013

Well, we've officially left winter behind; the calendar assures us that it is, in fact, spring. Whatever that means.  I guess it means that we're about two weeks until the Carbonell Awards ceremony at the Broward Center.

As you can see, it's another busy week on the Theatre Scene; there really is something for everyone out there.  Hot tickets for musicals include the final weekend of Thoroughly Modern Millie in Jupter, In The Heights at Actors' Playhouse in Coral Gables; not your thing?  If you want something more dramatic, try Lungs at the Theatre at Arts Garage, or 4000 Miles at GableStage.  Wanna laugh?  Brothers Beckett at the Arsht Center, or Waist Watchers, The Musical at the Plaza Theatre.  PLUS there's a plethora of community theatre and conservatory offerings to choose from.

Yep, we got plays from one end of South Florida to the other; get out and see something!
