Vagabond Players, Inc.: Kimberly Akimbo
806 S. Broadway Street
Baltimore, MD 21231
Tel: 410-563-9135
About:
As he did in Fuddy Meers, Pulitzer Prize winner Lindsay-Abaire presents a slightly off-center world with slightly crazy yet recognizable people, who, while they may not stop the world, definitely want to get off. There's Kimberly, a sixteen year-old who has aged prematurely, and whose relationship with her mom and dad is rocky at best. Her only link to some promise of normalcy is her nerdy friend Jeff. Enter Aunt Debra, a ne're-do-well "Auntie Mame" and things get increasingly out of hand. A new window definitely needs to be opened for this family. The question is should Aunt Debra be the one to do it. Directed by Steve Goldklang.

an die musik live: Peter Brotzmann & Han Bennink
409 n.charles st
baltimore, MD 21201
Tel: 410 385 2638
About:
A welcome return to Baltimore for two legendary pioneers of European Jazz and free improvisation.
Han Bennink and Peter Brotzmann made a landmark statement together in 1968 with "Machine Gun," the incendiary recording by the Peter Brotzmann Octet. In 2004, Brotzmann organized a series of performances to reunite the duo after a 24-year hiatus.
Time added perspective to the work of both artists. Though he still turns up the high heat, Brotzmann now reveals a lyricism at the heart of his fury. Bennink's physicality is still prominent; but he has shown himself to be an heir to the tradition of the great swing drummers like Baby Dodds, Jo Jones and Max Roach.
To Order:
10 tickets available for 9.30pm show. Please use offer code BB1 when ordering.
Hours:
Saturday 19 April at 9.30pm
