See Shakespeare in the Ruins
CSC Invites You to a Show Under the Stars
Beatrice and Benedick are made for one another, and everyone knows it… except for them. It will take an entire village of meddlers, gossips, and fools to help them win this “merry war” of misdeeds, misunderstandings, and mistaken identities. Normally based in their theatre on Redwood and Calvert, Chesapeake Shakespeare Company presents “Much Ado About Nothing” under the stars at PFI Historic Park through July 24, 2022.

Baltimore Theatre Project’s 50th Season Draws to a Close
Get Tickets to June Star
Baltimore-based band June Star has been writing, recording, and releasing records since 1998. What started as an “alt country-by-the-books sound” quickly expanded to a looser sense of Americana, incorporating elements of pedal steel and acoustic instrumentation as a background for songwriter Andrew Grimm’s musings on what holds us together and pushes us apart. The last event of Baltimore Theatre Project’s 50th season will be a one night-only performance by June Star at 7:30 p.m. on June 27, 2022. Get tickets at the link below.
“Breathing Black” Film Screening

After making its world premiere at the Reginald F. Lewis Museum last December, “Breathing Black” has since appeared in the Columbia Maryland Film Festival and is an official selection for the Indianapolis Black Documentary Film Festival premiering this August. Submersive Productions is hosting several screenings at The Peale Center on July 9 &10, 2022. Click the link below to get tickets.
