Sometimes it seems there is so much theater happening that it's difficult to keep track of it all. From personal experience, despite all the datebooks, smart phones, tablets, desktop computers and laptops...it's hard to keep everything straight in this wacky business of the show.

We'll update the calendar every Monday, clearing out the shows that have closed and adding additional information on the shows still to come.
