This was another weekend in South Florida that was filled with many events, so once again I will let the pics do the talking.
“Collected Stories” is playing at the Mosaic Theatre from today until December 5th. This acclaimed drama by Pulitzer Prize winner Donald Margulies chronicles the relationship between two female writers – a celebrated New York author and her young protégé. As their fascinating story evolves, and the line between fact and fiction blurs, the twists and turns of this complex relationship weave a play that’s as smart and witty as it is powerful. The play stars award-winning actors Barbara Bradshaw and Kim Morgan Dean. Admission is $37 for adults, $31 for seniors (65+) and $15 for students. Reserve your tickets by calling 954-577-8243 or online at MosaicTheatre.com

“The Kids Are All Right” is a “generous, nearly note-perfect portrait of a modern family” (Manohla Dargis, The New York Times). Directed by Lisa Cholodenko (“Laurel Canyon”) from an original screenplay that she wrote with Stuart Blumberg (“Keeping the Faith”), “The Kids Are All Right” stars Academy Award nominees Annette Bening (“American Beauty”) and Julianne Moore (“Boogie Nights”). Nic (Bening) and Jules (Moore) are a suburban couple raising their two teens, Joni (Mia Wasikowska, “Alice in Wonderland”) and Laser (Josh Hutcherson, “Journey to the Center of the Earth”), in Southern California. But when the kids track down their “donor dad” Paul (Mark Ruffalo, “Shutter Island”), an unexpected new chapter begins for everyone as family ties are defined, re-defined and then re-re-defined.
