The Collaborative Theatre Company will present "Alice in Wonderland" as its final show of its second season from June 9-25 at Fells Point Corner Theatre.
90 minutes of raw, unsettling drama comes to the stage at Fells Point Corner Theatre. The fourth show in our acclaimed #RescueMe season is David Harrower's provocative and eruptive, Blackbird.

Join us as Mother Superior battles to save her deteriorating convent while juggling a mystical postulant with visions, a sexual frenzy in the nunnery, a confused schoolboy and a seductive suitor intent on luring her away from her sacred vows.
But the play is not all philosophical argument, as important as this is: it also is a love story, a family tale, and an account of the 'band of brothers' that was Gay Men's Health Crisis. And like most great playwrights who turn their attention to public events, Kramer maintains a tight relationship between these stories. Kramer's artistic control of the huge canvas on which he paints is in the end what makes the play so powerful.
The Normal Heart by Larry Kramer opens at the Vagabond Theatre February 26th, and runs weekends through March 20.
Let's say you like farce. Let's say you like Hitchcock films. Let's say you want a posh production for a shoestring budget. Let's say you need a cast of thousands but only have four actors. Let's say it's a long shot. But it might work. It could work. And THE 39 STEPS, now playing at Fells Point Corner Theatre, does work, very well.
THE 39 STEPS adapted by Patrick Barlow a reimagining of Alfred Hitchcock's famous film of the same title, is a theatrical tour-de-force punctuated by over-the-top Monty Python-ish melodrama. Set in 1930s England and Scotland, the play, performed by only four actors, tells the story of a dapper London man (Richard Hannay) who tries to prevent a top-secret agent from stealing classified air-defense information. After the agent's sudden inexplicable murder, our hero Richard remains the only suspect and is forced to go on the run with an attractive and suave companion in attempts to clear his name.
