Ambition, love, why we do the things we do, all of these topics get drawn out into the ether between the jokes and name-dropping. It's a deep piece despite it just being a rave and rant about a famous lady who hoards her stuff.
Main Street Theater presents the hilarious play Buyer & Cellar by Jonathan Tolins. This show is 'an irresistible one-man play from the most peculiar of fictitious premises... This seriously funny slice of absurdist whimsy creates the illusion of a stage filled with multiple people, all of them with their own droll point of view,' said the New York Times. Doug Atkins, who has done the show once before Ft. Worth, will bring it to life for Houston.

Main Street Theater presents the Regional Premiere of Daddy Long Legs based on the classic novel by Jean Webster and featuring music and lyrics by Tony Award-nominated composer/lyricist, Paul Gordon (Jane Eyre), and Tony-winning librettist/director, John Caird (Les Miserables). "This show has the same romantic appeal that draws me to stories like Little Women and Anne of Green Gables as well as romantic period pieces like Downton Abbey and The Forsythe Saga," shares director Andrew Ruthven. "This love story is certainly a 'rags to riches' tale, but the heart of Daddy Long Legs is a young woman coming into her own. The show is punctuated by Jean Webster's very strong feminist stance. She pulls no punches in Jerusha's beliefs in votes for women, equality of the sexes, and the battle of sexes."

She's baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack! During SPRING BREAK ONLY, Main Street Theater is presenting Junie B. Jones Is Not a Crook! Why is Junie B. such a favorite? "She is such a quirky, witty and honest little girl!" says MST Theater for Youth Producing Director Vivienne M. St. John. "Junie really wants to be good and do the right thing, but she always seems to land herself in to trouble. Kids love her because they can relate to her. Adults relate to her because while some of the things she says can be trying, she reminds them of the children in their lives. Junie brings a chuckle and a smile to all who read her stories or see her live on our stage!"

On Saturday, November 11, The Baltimore Museum of Art (BMA) is launching a series of free creative conversations and social events that brings together nationally recognized artists, writers, and thought-leaders to consider key ideas at the intersection of art, race, and social justice and imagining the futures we want. The Necessity of Tomorrow(s) speaker series will kick off with a conversation between acclaimed artist Mark Bradford and BMA Dorothy Wagner Wallis Director Christopher Bedford, who most recently collaborated on the BMA's presentation of the U.S. Pavilion at the 2017 Venice Biennale. Drawing on themes explored in Bradford's installation, Tomorrow Is Another Day, their conversation will focus on the topic of making a path to power where none has existed before, a theme often explored in Bradford's work.
Planned a year ago as the opening of their 2017-18 season, no one had any inkling how ironic the title HARVEY would be. Playwright Mary Chase's merry little romp seemed like a good idea at the time. And as it turned out, it was.
