Review: 10X10X10 PLAY FESTIVAL at Fells Point Corner Theatre Scores Tens Across the Board!
Tucked between row homes on a quiet, one-way street in Upper Fells Point lives an 18th century firehouse with a community whose heart could carry the entire city of Baltimore. No single event showcases this better than Fells Point Corner Theatre’s 10x10x10 Play Festival. This festival is not to b…
Review: MY FAVORITE SOCIOPATH at Contemporary American Theater Festival

Review: THE DIVINE SISTER at Vagabond Players
THE DIVINE SISTER is a devilishly funny. It is a fun, comedic, irreverent, and enthralling. It's unlike any of the works that inspired it. The play will seem vaguely familiar at times, but it stands on its own as uniquely creative!…
