Love on the Air: This Week in Philadelphia Theatre

Once again, nothing new this week, as theatre companies and performers around the city prepare for the Live Arts and Fringe Festivals. Check back here next week for our preview. Meanwhile, to make up for the short listings, here's a longer quote, from 1930s and '40s star of stage and screen Nelson Eddy (the handsome devil you see here):

I know, I know the world wants love. I know that the fans want love on the air. Of course they do. They want love on the air as they want love in pictures, in the theatre, in novels and poems. And I want to give them love on the air - but not cheap love, not a low-class type of love.
