Here in Baltimore, it seems to be Bus Stop season. It's been less than a month since I reviewed the Spotlighters' community theater production of the William Inge 1955 classic; now it's Center Stage's turn. And of course Center Stage (or is it Centerstage these days?) gives it a full-dress professional staging. The difference is surprisingly great.

Oh what a circus, oh what a show...THE SERVANT OF TWO MASTERS extended to July 8 by popular demand.

Baltimore welcomes E. Faye Butler in her all-new act, 'What a Difference a Diva Makes'.
