The season opens with the journey of a new play to the stage.

Run Time: 90 minutes no intermission

Baltimore is the second work of a New Play Initiative established by the Big Ten Theatre Consortium. This collaboration among theatre departments will commission, produce, and publicize a series of new plays by female playwrights, with a secondary goal of creating strong female roles

The ticket office for BALTIMORE will close 5 minutes after the posted start time as late seating beyond that point will disrupt the performers and fellow audience members.
