The Vagabond Players in association with The Baltimore Playwrights Festival presents Commander, written by Mario Correa and directed by Chelsea Dove.

July 10-26, Friday/ Saturday at 8:00; Sunday at 2:00

Is America ready for a gay President? Governor Ned Worley is about to find out. But can the ambitious politician prove the naysayers wrong, or will personal demons-and a troubled partner-scuttle his historic candidacy?

In her directorial debut, Chelsea Dove has cast some of Baltimore's finest actors; Mark Scharf as Ned Worley is joined by Thom Sinn as Richard Gilly, Jeff Murray, David Shoemaker and Fiona Ford.

The playwright, Mario Correa, was recently awarded a 2015 BRIC lab residency at the Brooklyn Arts and Media Center, BRIC, to develop Commander. Mario's debut, Tail! Spin!, was a New York Times "Critics' Pick" and played an acclaimed, extended run Off Broadway in 2014 and 2015. Mario has also written for television and documentary film, and he is co-host of Entertainment Weekly magazine's daily "News & Notes" program on SiriusXM Radio.

Vagabond Theatre is located at 806 S. Broadway, on the square in Fells Point. Tickets can be purchased on line at www.vagabondplayers.org or at the door.
