Sounds Of Summer
Three diverse live concerts featuring favorite local artists and a rising star     

Taimane:
June 19 (8pm)
A ukulele virtuoso and songwriter, Taimane plays everything from Bach to rock, flamenco infernos to tribal hymns, with passion, ferocity, and sensuality. Widely known to Hawaiian audiences since she was a child, she is now performing on the international stage to roaring crowds and rave reviews. Taimane brings her trio (ukulele/vocals, classical guitar, and percussion) to PBD in her South Florida debut.
You can check out her remarkable skills on youtube:

The Lubben Brothers:
June 21 and 22 (8pm), June 23 (2pm)
The Brothers will perform genre-blending acoustic folk music that highlights their roots: Irish/Celtic fiddle tunes, John Denver, Woody Guthrie, and spirituals. Audiences of all musical backgrounds delight in the Brothers' fusion of classical, pop, newgrass, and Americana, represented best in the main focus of their shows -- their original music.

Jill and Rich Switzer:
August 2 and 3 (8pm), August 4 (2pm)
The dynamic duo of the Morning Lounge on Legends Radio 100.3 FM, along with some surprise guests, will pay tribute in word and song to some of their favorite Great American Songbook artists, including a centennial celebration of Nat King Cole.

Stages Productions Presents Charlotte’s Web :
June 15 (11am & 1pm) and June 16 (11am)
Based on E.B. White’s best-selling children’s paperback book of all time, Charlotte’s Web tells the story of a pig named Wilbur and his friendship with an extraordinary barn spider named Charlotte. When Wilbur is in danger of a trip to the butcher, Charlotte is determined to save him. Her ingenious plan ultimately ends with the now safe Wilbur doing what is most important to Charlotte. A beautiful, knowing play about friendship, sacrifice, compassion, and bravery.


Stages Productions Presents The Ugly Duckling :
July 13 (11am & 1pm) and July 14 (1pm)
Born bigger and different than the other hatchlings, the ugly duckling is ridiculed by his brothers and sisters, rejected by the other ducks, and eventually shunned by the entire barnyard. The little bird leaves home, embarking on a rollicking journey through hecklers, hunters, and hilarious hijinks only to discover that the beauty he was seeking was inside him all along. Based on Hans Christian Andersen’s beloved fairy tale.
