As it turns out, two parts family dysfunction (Lewis and Dana), added to one part interesting stranger (Raina), mixed vigorously in the small, brightly stark living room/lobby of an Italian Bed & Breakfast, by a genially detached innkeeper (Alex), will give you a satisfying bite of drama.
In a visually stunning production, Constellation Theatre Company's Absolutely! {perhaps} explores questions of privacy, reality and truth.
Marc Goldsmith's play about the romantic misadventures of a little person, both in stature and emotional maturity, is making its DC-area premiere after its original award-winning New York International Fringe Festival production in 2006.
The strong acting and the timely, provocative, and challenging script are likely reason enough to give this production a chance.
Director David Schweizer returns to Center Stage and directs a sublime musical.
Round House Theatre's FETCH CLAY, MAKE MAN illuminates a thrilling piece of history: a little known friendship between two monumental men - Muhammad Ali, a monument in the boxing ring, and Stepin Fetchit, a monument in Hollywood.
When Stephen Powell's Sweeney Todd lunges at the audience in vengeful anger declaring, "No ones in the chair, come on! Come on! Sweeney's waiting, I want you bleeders," It's hard to think of anything more thrilling.
From the moment you walk in the door at Capital Fringe's Fort Fringe in downtown Washington D.
To celebrate Strathmore's 10th Anniversary Season, The Baltimore Symphony Orchestra has created an enjoyable, albeit predictable collection of Broadway favorites, with a cast that brings new life to songs you may or may not have heard before.
While the stage at Riverside may be comparatively small; the laughs were just as big, and the talent was just as large
Roll over, Bela Lugosi: there's a new smooth-talking villain in town, and he wants your flesh.
Creative Cauldron's 2014-15 season is entitled, “Oh the places we will go…” And it's hard not to feel transported back to 1950's Paris with their charming production of Jacques Brel Is Alive and Well and Living in Paris.
Writer and performer David Epley, currently performing in DOKTOR KABOOM: LIVE WIRE! THE ELECTRICITY TOUR at the Kennedy Center should be this generation's Bill Nye, as he lights up the stage with comedy, education and lessons everyone, not just children, should learn.
There are few shows I know every word to, and even fewer I've known for 30 years.
Turns out, the decision Ford's Theatre Society made to present this award-winning work might not have only been a good idea in theory, but also in execution.
Director Amber Jackson has assembled a brilliant cast, creating an anarchic and, yes, surreal atmosphere in which anything and everything can happen.
I Capuleti e i Montecchi, the two act Italian opera by Vincenzo Bellini, is a delightful and tragic retelling fn those famous Shakespearean star-crossed lovers.
Chesapeake Shakespeare Theatre Moves into downtown Baltimore.
What a way for Center Stage Artistic Director Kwame Kwei-Armah to open Center Stage's 52nd Season.
At first glance, Imagination Stage's Night Fairy is a story about an injured Night Fairy who must learn to survive in the daytime.
Who is today's Queen of Broadway? After all, Audra McDonald just chalked up her record-setting sixth Tony.
This is one of the most fabulous, intimate musicals you will ever see: Metro Stage's revival of Janet Pryce and Thomas W.
Toast playfully explores innovation, technology, crowd-sourcing and the very roots of inspiration.
THE SEVEN YEAR ITCH at The American Century Theater has the potential to be strong and funny; however, several factors keep it from being a solid start to the company's final season.
The enchanted journey we embark upon with Washington National Opera's season opener Florencia in the Amazon is a production filled with beauty and a timeless truth.
