SUMMARY:'The Minutes' by Tracy Letts
DESCRIPTION:Tracy Letts’ The Minutes delivers a razor‑sharp satire of small‑town politics\, beginning as an ordinary\, comical city council meeting and spiraling into a brilliantly unsettling nightmare. With his signature wit and Pulitzer‑honed precision\, Letts introduces a cast of familiar\, larger‑than‑life personalities whose petty disputes — over parking spaces and missing bicycles — slowly peel back to expose something far more profound. What emerges is a bold\, biting look at the stories America tells itself\, and the fierce\, often ugly battles over who gets to define them. It’s a timely work that captures the essence of our political moment and promises to resonate long after it.\n\nApril 10-12\, 2026\, Friday & Saturday at 7pm\, Sunday at 2pm\n\nFree parking available across the street from the venue.\n\nFor tickets: readingcommplayers.com

SUMMARY:"Peter Pan: Or\, the Boy Who Would Not Grow Up" World Premiere Adaptation at Genesius Theatre

SUMMARY:America 250 Bus Tour: Revolution & Remembrance
DESCRIPTION:Baltimore was a key city in the fight for Independence. Did you know Edgar Allan Poe’s grandparents were famous Revolutionary War patriots in Baltimore? \nJoin us for an America 250 bus tour through Baltimore’s Revolutionary past\, where the fight for independence lives on in headstone\, story\, and street. Along the way\, discover the Edgar Allan Poe family’s Revolutionary roots and the lives of Baltimore’s signers of the Declaration of Independence. Tours meet inside the Baltimore Visitor Center at the Inner Harbor. \nThe first stop on this special commemorative tour is Westminster Hall & Burying Ground. World-famous as the final resting place of Edgar Allan Poe\, this hallowed ground is also home to over 300 patriots of the American Revolution and War of 1812—including Poe’s own family. Immigrants\, women\, and working-class heroes like David and Elizabeth Poe\, who aided The Marquis de Lafayette’s troops\, are buried alongside towering figures like General Samuel Smith\, James McHenry\, and Rev. Patrick Allison\, chaplain to the first Continental Congress and an early voice for the separation of church and state. \nThe tour continues with history of two Baltimore signers of the Declaration of Independence: a visit to Old St. Paul’s Cemetery\, where Samuel Chase\, the United States’ first impeached Supreme Court Justice\, is laid to rest\, and then the historic Carroll Mansion where Charles Carroll of Carrollton (the only Catholic signer) spent his final days and where the very bed in which he died remains on display. \nWhether you’re a lifelong Marylander or a first-time visitor\, “Revolution & Remembrance” invites you to see Baltimore’s Revolutionary roots through fresh eyes\, and to reflect on the diverse people who helped shape a nation.
