A collage of thought and feeling in modern times Fells Point Corner Theatre brings one of Caryl Chuchill’s most ambitious works to its stage: Love and Information. Someone sneezes. Someone can’t get a signal. Someone won’t answer the door. Someone put an elephant on the stairs. Someone’s not ready to talk. Someone is her brother’s mother. Someone hates irrational numbers. Someone told the police. Someone got a message from the traffic light. Someone’s never felt like this before.
In this fast moving kaleidoscope, more than a hundred characters try to make sense of what they know.
"[A] thought-churning, deeply poignant new play... Leave it to Ms. Churchill to come up with a work that so ingeniously and exhaustively mirrors our age of the splintered attention span... This British playwright has proved herself without peer in creating expressly topical works in which form and function are one.... Sharp-minded [and] tender-hearted."

A comedy in six scenes, four dreams and seven wigs. There are two ways to produce this play: 1) with good wigs; or 2) with bad wigs. The second way is preferred. Myrna and Myra, almost identical twins, battle each other through the Eisenhower, Nixon and Reagan/Bush years over Virginity, Vietnam and Family Values. Vogel’s farce explores the divide in American politics and families through generations and hair pieces.
"THE MINEOLA TWINS…bursts forth in its glory…a funny, perceptive, biting take on The American Woman. Vogel was never more political and never more on target."
"…very clever — and ultimately more than clever…ingenious…”

Fells Point Corner Theatre brings one of the pillars of modern theatre back to Baltimore with Edward Albee's Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf. A vibrant and bold masterpiece serving as inspiration for generations of theatre artists. A drunken evening between two couples unwinds into a night of emotional tragedy, witty banter and seductions as even the strongest among us prove to be just as messy and flawed as the rest. An unflinching look into the fractured reality of two souls who cannot help but love each other and the secrets they keep.
"…a scorching, scalding, revealing and completely engrossing drama."
