New Virtual Theater Works from Everyman, Annapolis Shakespeare & More

Today, we'll hear first about one of the ways Baltimore’s Everyman Theater has adapted to the new normal: they’ve attached themselves to a city-sponsored film festival. The Baltimore City Office of Equity and Civil Rights is hosting the Fair Housing Film Festival from August 24 to 28, and Everyman’s entry is a live theater event, The House That Holds Us, a virtual evening of theatrical readings, scenes, and monologues that examines the housing experience in Baltimore.Joining Tom via Zoom to talk about the new work is Vincent Lancisi. He is the founder and Artistic Director of the Everyman Theatre. Then, we take a broader view of the coronavirus-affected theater scene, in which companies are restricted to presenting their work on-line. But that restriction hasn’t prevented the arts community from producing a wide range of innovative theater. Midday theater critic J. Wynn Rousuck joins Tom via Skype to suggest some new virtual theater offerings you might want to check ouEmail us at [email protected], tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.
