The Scene for July 16, 2010

Summer is moving relentlessly along; we're already halfway through July.  And it seems everyone is moving:  Florida Stage has moved into its new home at the Kravis Center,  the Theatre Scene has moved (to larger digs), and Sound Designer Steve Shapiro is moving to Pittsburgh to take on a faculty position.  And if that's not bad enough, he's taking Elizabeth Lang, master electrician, with him.

But seriously, best of luck in the hinterlands; you'll certainly be missed here, and they'll be lucky to you have you up there.
