Variety Show the Musical Play has traversed the country and now comes back to its roots here in Baltimore.
This theater piece was created by Theresa Columbus and 8 writer/performers: Izaak Collins, Cliff Doby, Ruby Fulton, Myles Hamilton, Caitlin Weaver, Jacob Zabawa, Francisco Benavides, and Allison Clendaniel. Their process challenges the traditional roles of writer/director and actors. The play contains short plays, performance art, and songs, producing the effect of a surreal vaudevillian variety show, even though several narrative and formal through-lines connect the “variety” of pieces. Different theatrical forms bump up against and expand each other, splashing into the poetry of everyday conversation.
With set design by Mika Nakano (with assistance from Daniel Ettinger) and costumes by Nicolette LeFaye! Stage managing by Lauren Kane!
