The Scene for November 29, 2013

We hope you had a great Thanksgiving; some of us were battling a fierce headcold, which not only deprived us of turkey, but also of the energy to keep up with the blog.  But we’re down to just a little bit of sniffling, so it’s back to work!

 

The South Florida Theatre League has announced the Remy Award recipients; they will be presented at the League’s Holiday Party on December 2nd at Stache; the party is free for League members, and $25 for non-members.  Come in and hob knob with the Remy winners, as well as the Silver Palm honorees – the Silver Palm Awards shares the League party.   The location? Right down the street from the Broward Center, at the former home of the Green Room, behind Club Revolution.  It’s the League’s 20th anniversary, so it’ll be a blowout.

 
Here's what's playing on the scene this weekend.
