Dancin’ in the Streets (34th Street)
Dancin’ in the Streets: Avenue of the Arts gets a summer soundtrack
Avenue Artists 2001 is the latest in a summer tradition on the Avenue of the Arts. The idea behind it is this: every Friday afternoon until August 17, a different artist will put on a free lunchtime open-air concert on a different corner along S. Broad Street each week. All this is to drum up business for the theatres, hotels and retail stores along the Avenue.
Have You Seen the Muffin Man? (34th Street)
Have You Seen the Muffin Man: Love and hunger stem from the same primal instincts or so we are led to believe in The Arden Theatre’s The Baker’s Wife.
The Baker’s Wife tells the story of the small French village of Concorde during the summer of the 1935. The village has been beset by the recent death of their baker, which has left them breadless for a whopping seven weeks.
