We enter the second weekend of Stargaze (the theatre fest kicked off last Thursday) and it’ll stack up similarly to the first. Five short plays – which explore “themes of love, memory, time-travel, and mysterious nightly metamorphoses” – run every evening with scripts by Marcus Delzell, Zach Freed, Kaleb King, Sarah Waddle, and Alessio Franco delighting your sophisticated cultural palate. All ticket proceeds benefit the Star Bandit Foundation, whose mission is fostering, enriching, and nurturing Austin-based artists. If you missed that fabled first weekend, make sure you secure a ticket during the second. – James Scott
