Ballet Gamonet, which will launch
their second season in October |

In most parts of the country, changing colors signal the
beginning of autumn. But in South Florida, changing marquees signal the new
season, at least for lovers of the performing arts.
Welcome to
MiamiARTzine.com’s first season preview issue. The stories in this issue
are designed to give readers a run-down of the theatre, dance and music seasons
of as many companies whose schedules were available at press time. In addition
to the schedules and descriptions of upcoming concerts and productions, read
what the artistic directors of various organizations have to say about their
seasons, and how the season reflects the personality of their company.

When Floridians hear the name Canada they immediately
think “land of perpetual snow,” but 17 of New Theatre’s patrons experienced
a very different wonderland.
Part fundraiser/part theatre vacation, this jaunt into the territories of Canada
was excellently arranged by theatre enthusiast Paula Levine, who made us aware
that Canada has more to offer than Mounties and moose. In five full days the
attendees covered three towns, seven theatrical shows, three talk back sessions
with cast members, three tantalizing five-star dinners, a guided tour and
tasting at a renown vineyard, while enjoying the scenic motor coach ride which
shuttled us from one hospitable hotel to the next. |
