The Scene for August 8, 2014

Heat.  Humidity. Rain.  Rinse & repeat.  Thus do the days of August pass in a South Florida rainy season.

 

In days of yore, South Florida’s theatre scene would have rolled up the sidewalk by now; most actors and stagehands would be in the midst of summer stock productions across the middle of America. 

 

But that was then. 

Monday will bring the latest entry in the Theatre League’s Summer Theatre Fest Reading Series, a staged reading of Nancy Cheser’s new musical Broken English at Area Stage Company.  

 
Here's what’s playing on the scene this weekend:
