Saturday August 12, 2017

4 PM to 6PM – Free. Young Voices. JB Callaman Center, 102 North Parramore Ave, Orlando. Teen Open Mic Every second Saturday of the month.

9 PM to 2 AM – Free. Perseid Meteor Shower. Night sky. According to NASA meteor expert Bill Cooke, the Perseids are perhaps the
most popular meteor shower of the year. Typical rates are about 80
meteors an hour, but in outburst years (such as in 2016) the rate can be
between 150-200 meteors an hour. The meteor shower’s actual peak is
around 1 PM EDT on August 12, which means that the night before and the
night after will both have good rates; Cooke said the show would be
slightly better in the predawn hours of Aug. 12, but that there would be a
decent show both nights.

7 PM to 10 PM – $25 to $35. The Merry Widow. Orlando Repertory Theatre, 1001 E Princeton St, Orlando, Florida 32803. A modernized version of Franz Lehár’s Operetta.
