Area Stage's Conservatory has come up with a Halloween week double header: a haunted house and a program of short plays and musical numbers aimed at middle schoolers and high school students.
Weird Tales and Other Amazing Stories, a collection of plays by Roberto Aguirre-Sacasa, Dylan Guerra and Flavia Pallozzi, will be performed tonight-Friday at 7 p.m., and on Halloween night (Saturday) at 5 and 8 p.m. The actors include playwrights Guerra and Pallozzi, as well as Ani Mesa, Ale Mesa, Brandon Flynn, Daniel Gerchakov, Daniella Pereira, Jonjon Rodaz, Katie Erwin, Kevin Rios, Manuel Jaquez, Marilyn Caserta, Mia Pennekamp, Natalia Ochoa, Natasha Sedan, Rachel Rodaz and Sasha Neufeld. There's also an on-site Haunted House, and on Halloween, a costume contest.
Admission to the Haunted House and show is $20 ($10 for students). For the Haunted House only, it's $3 or two for $5.
Area is based at the Riviera Theatre, 1560 S. Dixie Hwy. in Coral Gables. Call 305-666-2078 or visit the web site for more information.

If you're a grown-up theater lover looking for something new and different (and free) to experience tonight, head on over to New Theatre at 4120 Laguna St. in Coral Gables. The company is doing a reading of Kirk Citron's play But Not for Lunch. The play is about a successful attorney who retires and wants his younger wife to do likewise, but she doesn't agree. For info, call 305-443-5909 or visit New Theatre's web site.
