| | DOGFIGHT
by Benj Pasek, Justin Paul (Music and Lyrics) and Peter Duchan (Book);
Based on the Warner Bros. film and screenplay by Bob Comfort
directed by Michael Blum,
in collaboration with Baltimore Design School for costumes and set design
Mar 20 - Apr 12, 2020
Dogfight tells the story of three young Marines, who, on the eve of their deployment to Southeast Asia, indulge in a night of debauchery that includes playing a cruel joke on unsuspecting women. In the rowdy process, PFC Eddie Birdlace meets awkward and idealistic Rose Fenny, who survives the insults to teach Eddie about the power of compassion.
The haunting, beautiful score and the heartbreaking plot, set against the tapestry of events of the 1960s, take audiences on a memorable theatrical journey through the horrors of war and a woman’s realization of her worth as a human being.

| | A Midsummer Gender Fluid Dream
an adaptation of Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream
directed by Lanore Blake
May 1 - May 24, 2020
In A Midsummer Night's Dream, residents of Athens mix with fairies from a local forest, with comic results. In the city, Theseus, Duke of Athens, is to marry Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons. Bottom the weaver and his friends rehearse in the woods a play they hope to stage for the wedding celebrations.
Four young Athenians are in a romantic tangle. Lysander and Demetrius love Hermia; she loves Lysander and her friend Helena loves Demetrius. Hermia’s father, Egeus, commands Hermia to marry Demetrius, and Theseus supports the father’s right. All four young Athenians end up in the woods, where Robin Goodfellow, who serves the fairy king Oberon, puts flower juice on the eyes of Lysander, and then Demetrius, unintentionally causing both to love Helena. Oberon, who is quarreling with his wife, Titania, uses the flower juice on her eyes. She falls in love with Bottom, who now, thanks to Robin Goodfellow, wears an ass's head.
As the lovers sleep, Robin Goodfellow restores Lysander's love for Hermia, so that now each young woman is matched with the man she loves. Oberon disenchants Titania and removes Bottom’s ass’s head. The two young couples join the royal couple in getting married, and Bottom rejoins his friends to perform the play.

| | DINNER WITH FRIENDS
by Donald Margulies
Directed by Darlene Harris
July 24 - Aug 16, 2020
Gabe and Karen, a happily married, middle-aged couple, live in Connecticut. They have been friends with Tom and Beth, another married couple, for many years. In fact, it was Gabe and Karen who introduced their friends in the first place. While having dinner at Gabe and Karen's home, Beth tearfully reveals that she is getting a divorce from Tom, who has been unfaithful.
Tom, who had been away on business, finds out that Beth has told their friends about the looming divorce, and hastens to Gabe and Karen's home. Tom and Beth had planned to tell their friends about their breakup together, but Tom now believes that Beth unfairly has presented herself as the wronged party, and feels he must present his own side of the story.
The time flashes back 12 years to a vacation home on Martha's Vineyard, when Karen and Gabe introduce Beth to Tom. Over the course of the play, both couples are seen at different ages and stages of their lives. Tom and Beth's breakup affects Gabe and Karen, who first feel compelled to choose sides, and then begin to question the strength of their own seemingly tranquil marriage. They also begin to see the real meaning behind their friendships with Tom and Beth.
