Top 10 Spoleto events to check out for week 3 Gimme the good stuff

We're in the homestretch of Spoleto 2012, with just a few days left in the festival. But don't take off your party shoes just yet. Highly rated shows like Hay Fever, Feng Yi Ting, and The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe are still going strong, if you haven't seen them yet. And then there are a few more shows opening that we've been waiting impatiently for. Here are our top 10 picks for this week.
