In This Week's Issue

It’s the most wonderful time of the year: The season when shorter days and crisper air are the perfect excuse to flock to indoor havens like galleries and theatres. It is also, luckily for you, the time those very places are stuffed to the rafters with unmissable concerts, heart-stirring plays and laugh-till-it-hurts comedy. Another bonus? This fall promises to be an exceptionally bright one for fans of local dance, with an ambitious production by the indomitable Mocean Dance, and a host of other impressive showcases from Live Art Dance and more. Prepare to pack your day planner.
