CANAL STREET STAGE ENTERTAINMENT

Yup, the Canal Street Stage is making a comeback this year.  (Of course, it’ll be on the portion of Canal Street that’s actually open.  No word on when the other portion of Canal Street will actually open.  Our guess is we’ll have a new City Manager before Canal Street reopens.)
