Given the moat of terrible traffic that separates Baltimore theatergoers from Arlington, what can justify a visit there? Well, one answer for sure is Signature Theatre’s stunning production of the 2014 musical The Bridges of Madison County. With a timeless story, a lush, varied score, and riveting performances, Bridges absolutely repays the drive.
What did our critic think of THE BRIDGES OF MADISON COUNTY at Signature Theatre? Andy Warhol once questioned, “I wonder if it’s possible to have a love affair that lasts forever.” The Bridges of Madison County answers this with its sweeping Jason Robert Brown score, following the extramarital affair between Francesca (Erin Davie), an Italian war bride, and Robert (Mark Evans), a lost National Geographic photographer. Based on the Robert James Waller novel, Bridges is set in 1960s rural Iowa as Francesa sees her husband, Bud (Cullen R. Titmas), and her two children off to go to the state fair for a few days. That’s when Robert Kincade rides up her driveway, lost and looking for directions. What follows is a four-day whirlwind that changes Francesa’s life forever.

Heartbeat Opera returns to Baruch Performing Arts Center with its beloved Spring Festival for the first time since its acclaimed DER FREISCHÜTZ in 2019. Heartbeat has become synonymous with visceral hit productions such as a FIDELIO that recruited real prison choirs as the chorus, and a CARMEN that cut the famous “Habanera” from the opening but inserted it as the harrowing finale—and its Spring Festival promises more bracing surprises.
