The Strand Theater Company's HARRY AND THE THIEF Opens 3/31
The Strand Theater Company presents a regional premiere production of Harry and the Thief, by Sigrid Gilmer. Jeremy has a Ph.D. in physics from Harvard. And a time machine. And a plan. Jeremy's plan is to send his thieving cousin Mimi back in time to 1863 to find Harriet Tubman and give her guns. Lots and lots of guns. Directed by Susan Stoupe.
Harry and the Thief will preview on March 30th, officially open on March 31st, and run Thursdays-Saturdays at 8pm and Sundays at 7pm, through April 10th. Tickets are $20 General Admission, $10 for students, seniors, and artists. All performances take place at St. Mark's Lutheran Church at 1900 St. Paul Street, Baltimore MD 21201.

"It is a privilege to present such an audacious piece of theatre," says Strand's Executive Director, Elena Kostakis. "It resonates with our mission of celebrating women's diverse voices and perspectives, by bringing together Sigrid Gilmer's brilliant writing with the director Susan Stroupe's thoughtful and imaginative directing style. Brought to life by an eclectic, talented cast and an all-female design team, we just couldn't have wished for a better production to bring to Baltimore audiences!"
