Next Season Announced!
Theatre Project 2009 / 2010
38th Season Line Up.
Producing Director Anne Cantler Fulwiler has just announced the new subscription series.
The season will include the return of three popular past Theatre Project performers, Sara Felder of Philadelphia (June Bride), Al Letson of Florida (Essential Personnel, Griot, Summer in Sanctuary) and Vermont's Sandglass Theatre (Richard 3.5: Light Ruminations on Murder), and collaborations with three Maryland companies, Performance Workshop Theater, Quest: Arts for Everyone (with White Box Theater), and VT Dance. Fulwiler says of the line-up "These six shows exemplify our mission goals to support alternative theater, to assist artists in creating new works, and to introduce that work to an appreciative audience of daring theater-goers. The work may take you out of your comfort zone, but I guarantee a satisfying experience." A more complete description of the works follows.
The season will also include many other offerings from local, national, and international artists including: The High Zero Festival (Sept 10-13); a Thunder Thigh Revue Reunion with Joyce J. Scott and Kay Lawal-Muhammad (Sept 19); David Keltz in An Evening with Poe (Sept 24 - Oct 4); American Opera Theater's Kurt Weill Songspiel with Sylvia McNair (Nov 6 - 14) and Le Cabaret de Carmen (January 20 - 24); DanceRink's Dracula (Oct 28 - Nov 1) and Alice in Wonderland (Dec 16 - 23) ; Dakshina/Daniel Phoenix Singh Dance Company (Nov 19-22) ; Susan Mele's Love's Labias Lost and Mother May I? (Jan 7-17); Peabody Chamber Opera in Conrad Souza's Transformations (Jan 18-21); Kuumba Collective (Jan 25-28); Scott Turner Schofield's Becoming a Man in 127 Easy Steps (Mar 31 - Apr 3); and the Margolis/Brown Adaptors in a new work (Apr 8 - 11).
Subscriptions will go on sale July 17th (Artscape weekend) and are priced at $80 for the six shows with discounts available for Seniors and Student. Single tickets will go on sale August 17th. Single tickets for subscription productions are $20 general admission, $15 for seniors and artists, and $10 for students.
New this year, Theatre Project will offer the first Thursday of each subscription show as Pay- What-You-Wish Press Dress, an opportunity to see the show first and pay what's comfortable for the individual pocketbook. "Since Theatre Project first began as a free theater, and providing access to everyone is really important to us, I was driven to find a new way to share our offerings with an audience who may be unable to pay even $10," says Fulwiler. "Our goal is always to make our work available to any and all adventurous souls who seek decidedly different performance offerings. We hope this will help reinvigorate Theatre Project's presence in the Baltimore cultural community as a welcome meeting place for all. And you can always count on meeting the performers after the show." Fulwiler also plans to add more post-show Q&As, and many of the visiting artists will offer workshops open to the general public. "Whatever your background, Theatre Project strives to present the stories of diverse cultures that speak with universal truths we can all understand."
Meredith's Ring
White Rabbit Theatre Company
Tickets $30 general / $15 Student & Senior
June 17
White Rabbit Theatre and Cuchipinoy Productions proudly presents Meredith's Ring by Andrew Rothkin and ANONYMOUS by Rodney E. Reyes, two one-act plays on love, loss and the parent-child relationship, directed by Andrew Rothkin and Taylor Keith, respectively. The poignant pieces will be the main attraction of the Baltimore Benefit. They will also be a part of the world premiere of the Planet Connections Theatre Festivity in New York City. This one night only event will be an unforgettable night of theatre, live music, tasty nibbles, raffles, door prizes and a silent auction. Proceeds will help defer the transportation costs of both companies during the Planet Connections Theatre Festivity as well as supporting CEDARS with a portion of the evening's proceeds.
