Romeo & Juliet at Chesapeake Shakespeare Company

Reviews April 20, 2024 Amanda N. Gunther

If love be rough— be rough with love! Or get on down to Club Escalus for Mercutio’s Funky Boogie Woogie! Or both! All of the above. Groove to rhythm of ’75, baby— and nah, we don’t mean no 1575. We’re talkin’ 1975, ya dig? And we’re talkin’ Baltimore Baby! Closing out their 2023/2024 season on their Main Stage (and please join them for their fabulous summer fling out at the PFI in Ellicott City when R&J closes) Chesapeake Shakespeare Company is bringing you the grooviest production of Romeo &

As You Like It at Chesapeake Shakespeare Company

Reviews October 4, 2023 Amanda N. Gunther

It was a bright and cold day in September and the clocks were striking 13. No, that’s not quite right.

We that are true lovers run into strange capers. That’s more like it.

Joseph & The Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat at Just Off Broadway

Reviews October 22, 2019 Mike Zellhofer

you that you don’t know Joe! Oppel brings us a delightfully staged version of
the show unlike any that I have seen.

New York at Just Off Broadway

Reviews May 11, 2018 Amanda N. Gunther

Can you remember what you had for breakfast this morning? Do you recall what pair of shoes you wore out last Friday night? Or what you were doing three years ago on a Saturday afternoon? Most of us can’t. But on the morning of September 11, 2001— a Tuesday morning not quite 17 years in America’s past, everyone can remember exactly where they were and what they were doing when the news broke that planes had crashed into the twin towers.

Company at Just Off Broadway

Reviews October 15, 2017 Andrew Worthington

Phone rings, door chimes, and in comes a charming and comical production of Company, Sondheim’s musical comedy, presented by Just-Off Broadway in Baltimore!

The themes of bachelorhood, marriage, and how to form and maintain relationships are enduringly relevant more than three decades later.
