Some puppet shows are wonderful family events -- but Shaun McNamara's "50 Shades of Felt" is not one of them. This scandalous parody of the similarly titled bestselling novel features full puppet nudity, sexual themes and situations galore, and language that would make your grandmother blush, and most likely you as well! For all its naughtiness, however, "50 Shades of Felt" is a riotously funny good time replete with a puppet "Sex Pledge," puppets shaped like objects they shouldn't be, and a Goddess with the power to grant those elusive "fuzzgasms." Leave the kids at home for this one, and head to Ft. Lauderdale's Empire Stage for a show that aims to make you feel violated (or at least in need of a cigarette). [less-]

Behind Mona Lisa's coy smile lies a history of theft, immigration and encounters with the rich and famous. And no, we're not talking about the mysterious subject, but rather the literal painting itself. In this newest tale from multiple award-winning playwright Michael McKeever, "Finding Mona Lisa" embarks on an adventure that explores the history of this renowned painting, along with Leonardo da Vinci's first brushes with the subject at hand, the lovely Senora del Giocondo. From the "Mona Lisa"'s meetings with multiple acts of vandalism to her "resting time" on Napoleon's bedroom walls, McKeever highlights the painting's hilarious journey at the Miracle Theatre in Coral Gables.

Art doesn't just imitate life in Michael Leeds' "Impressions" -- it literally comes to life. From a Degas dancer to a Monet matron, "Impressions" uses the women at the heart of some of the most famous Impressionist paintings of all time as inspiration, imagining who these mystery women were, what their lives were like, and even what they were thinking. The Impressionists introduced a new way of looking at the world, allowing the eye and the imagination to redefine the people and places they painted. Now a trio of award-winning actresses -- Patti Gardner, Barbara Sloan and Karen Stephens -- will bring these famous creations to life for the very first time on the Abyss Theatre stage in Wilton Manors.

The Miami Music Institute presents the poignant opera "Dead Man Walking", a modern classic adapted from the real-life story of death-row reformer Sister Helen Prejean, which also spawned Tim Robbins' critically acclaimed 1995 film starring Sean Penn and Susan Sarandon and the subsequent stage adaptation.

One of the most frequently performed operas of all time, Mozart's hilarious "The Marriage of Figaro" was based on a play so scandalous it was banned in Vienna. Fortunately, Mozart had the pull to get his opera version approved and music history was made. The opera went on to achieve fantastic success and continues to delight audiences to this day. Figaro, once "The Barber of Seville," is now valet to Count Almaviva, who has grown from a young romantic into a shameless skirtchaser. His latest target is Figaro's bride-to-be, the lovely Susanna. As Figaro tries to keep the count away until the wedding, Susanna and the Countess have their own plot to embarrass and expose the scheming count. Identities are concealed, manners upended, plots foiled ... all to the glorious music of Mozart's masterpiece. Experience the mischief and merriment of "The Marriage of Figaro" at Shepard & Ruth K. Broad Performing Arts Center in Miami Shores during the Miami Music Festival. [less-]
