Partly Fortissimo With A 100% Chance of Tchaikovsky

mann_002%5B1%5D.jpg The Mann Center in its recent season announcement, apparently having developed a weather-forecasting subsidiary, is predicting a "sizzling, sultry and sensational summer." Oy, let's hope not, at least on the former two conditions. I prefer the Mann when you can sit on the lawn and catch the kind of 72-degree breezes not generally available downtown. Make it a free ticket, and it feels even better. Speaking of those free lawn tickets, they are available starting right this minute - 10 a.m., May 1 - on the Mann's website. Get 'em while they're, er - well, let's steer clear of the forecasting.
