Why is it feminine?
Escena is feminine because it derives from Latin "scaena," which was feminine in gender, and Spanish retained this grammatical gender when the word evolved phonetically (the initial 's' became 'es-' in Spanish). The Latin feminine gender likely persisted simply through regular inheritance rather than following a predictable rule based on the word's ending or meaning.
