Compass Rose Theater and Anne Arundel Community College join forces to present the award-winning musical Rent from February 6 to March 8, 2026. This collaborative project features students alongside a professional cast, including notable performers like DeMario Adams-Holiday as Tom Collins and Ryan Alexander as Roger Davis. The production, directed by Stephen Emery, celebrates the show's 25th anniversary with a live band and highlights the educational mission of providing hands-on experience in theater. Audience members can expect a modern interpretation of this iconic story, engaging with powerful themes and dynamic performances.
Pride & Prejudice (11/14/25-12/14/25)
Founded in the spring of 2011, Compass Rose Theater is a small non-profit professional theater, which produces productions of the highest caliber. Driven by our passion to produce plays which leave the audience moved, and even transformed by the experience of the show, we hire actors and theater artists who are accomplished professionals to produce plays that range from classic to contemporary. Discovering the truth of each script, and striving to achieve excellence in each production, we hold ourselves to the standards. In April 2013, we relocated from our first home, a renovated storefront, moving to a former rug cleaners, which we rehabbed into a lobby, classroom, and 80 seat theater.
