The Scene for September 28, 2012

You may have noticed that we have a new contributor; Andie Arthur, executive director of the South Florida Theatre League will be doing a weekly column that will appear on Wednesdays. That means that on three days every week, you will find new articles; the Monday reading list, Andie's Wednesday contribution, and of course, The Scene on Thursday.

And we'll post links to all the reviews as they come out, as always.

We'll be working to update the Theatre Scene calendar, linked in the menu bar above.  Did you know that you can subscribe to it, so that it shows up on your mobile phone?
