Just went to a fantastic production of Hamlet. The theater is in the round and immersive. Just enough interaction between the actors in the audience to keep it interesting but not distracting. The space just off the stage in between seating and the balconies becomes performance space. Well worth a visit, great environment and great acting. There are some great sitting and reading areas, and even a little side fun room for kids.

Very well done. So engaging and true to the text. The actors came to chat with the students several times

We saw the Complete Works of Shakespeare tonight and it was absolutely delightful. The cast had us roaring and they were so interactive with the crowd. The majority of jokes went over my daughter’s head (totally okay because many were adult jokes haha) but she still had a fantastic time and couldn’t stop talking about everything after we left. It was hysterical during a particularly raunchy joke when one cast member ran in front of her and started animatedly singing “the wheels on the bus” so she wouldn’t see. 😂 Casts like this one are a treasure. I can’t wait for our next trip to Baltimore to see them again. PS: thank you for stopping to take a picture with our daughter and showing so much respect and kindness! ❤️

Wonderful venue and production! Came here to see Twelfth Night and it was a delight. The show was excellent. The building is beautiful inside and they have a bar with drinks and snacks. They have an arrangement with the Arrow parking garage nearby so you can get a discounted ($5) parking rate during the show.

We saw Measure for Measure. As with all Shakespeare, at times a little difficult to follow because of the language. But essentially a #metoo play from several hundred years ago.

The acting was very good and it was easy enough to follow despite the archaic language. They setting was modern but it worked very well.

It was not theater in the round but somewhat similar because the stage projects out into the audience and it is surrounded by the audience on 3 sides.

The building is beautiful. It was a bank building at one time and as you can see from the photo, the ceiling is gorgeous.
