WELCOME Our 25th Anniversary Season is a real game changer.

Our biggest season yet, there are six great reasons to sign up now for a year of unforgettable live theatre - four landmark plays, iconic and world renowned, plus two new plays, never before seen in Baltimore, that will impress and delight audiences.

Death of a Salesman and A Streetcar Named Desire are two of the most famous American plays ever written. See them together with the same company of first rate actors in alternating performances every other night in what we are calling The Great American Rep. Both plays will be performed on the same day every Saturday and Sunday. This has never been done before with these two plays, anywhere!

Arthur Miller, Tennessee Williams, and the Everyman Resident Company in rotating rep - wow!

We are lowering prices and offering new discounts to throw open our doors and be sure everyone gets to see these plays, but only subscribers get close up and go behind the scenes with special invitations and access to the artists. So, join the family - subscribe today. You’ll be glad you did.

FENCES DIRECTED BY

CLINTON TURNER DAVIS Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, two-time Tony Award-winner, and one of the most groundbreaking plays of the 20th century, Fences is a classic story of father and sons, dreams and disappointments, and challenging the realities of the American Dream. Troy Maxson, “one of the great characters in American drama” (New York Post), is a garbage collector and onetime homerun king of the Negro baseball league. Shut out of the big leagues, Troy turned away from a world of unfulfilled dreams and denied opportunities. Now in the changing cultural landscape of the late 1950s, his youngest son, Cory, has become an emerging football star and sees the world through very different eyes. Troy must come to terms with his past or risk tearing his family apart at the seams.

OUTSIDE MULLINGAR WRITTEN BY

DIRECTED BY

JOHN PATRICK SHANLEY DONALD HICKEN From the Pulitzer, Oscar and Tony Awardwinning author of Doubt and Moonstruck comes a charming and deeply moving romantic comedy, perfect for the holiday season. Set against the rolling hills of Ireland, Outside Mullingar is the unlikely love story of Anthony and Rosemary — two introverted 40-something neighbors, whose families are in a bitter land dispute. Full of laughs and tenderhearted moments, John Patrick Shanley’s poetic Irish fable reminds us all that it’s never too late to take a chance on love.

WRITTEN BY

MICHAEL HOLLINGER VINCENT M. LANCISI Hot off its sold-out run at the Arden Theatre in Philadelphia, Michael Hollinger’s (Opus, Red Herring) funny and moving new play explores the curious nature of family dynamics and the true meaning of giving a part of yourself away. Lou has a complicated relationship with his estranged daughter Raina. But when he needs a kidney transplant in order to survive, their lives are thrust back together and Raina must decide if she can come to terms with her anger and resentment long enough to save her father’s life. As Raina struggles with her decision, she meets another potential donor, Jarrell. Surprising revelations from the past are made as her immediate connection with Jarrell sends sparks flying and Raina wrestles with just how much of herself she is willing to give up.

DEATH OF A SALESMAN WRITTEN BY

DIRECTED BY

ARTHUR MILLER VINCENT M. LANCISI Winner of the Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize, Arthur Miller’s profound and powerful tragedy of an American dreamer is a dramatic masterpiece.

Willy Loman is the ultimate everyman. His life of hard work has not translated into the wealth and respect he dreamt of. As retirement draws near, his eldest son refuses to follow the path Willy has planned for him. Buried secrets from the past come to light and Willy’s pursuit of the American dream begins to fade. Since it was first performed in 1949, Death of a Salesman has been recognized as a milestone of American theatre and continues to strike a chord with audiences around the world.

“SUPERB! AN ICON OF THE AMERICAN THEATER.” -THE BOSTON GLOBE

THE ROTATING REP These two plays will be performed by the same company of actors switching roles in the two plays night after night.

See the company transform before your very eyes. You choose which play to see first and how soon thereafter you want to see the other play. Come a month apart, a week apart, or binge watch both in one day.

A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE WRITTEN BY

DIRECTED BY

TENNESSEE WILLIAMS DEREK GOLDMAN One of the most remarkable plays of our time, Tennessee Williams’ Pulitzer Prize-winning southern drama comes to life on Everyman’s stage. Blanche DuBois, a faded and delicate Southern Belle, has mysteriously arrived on the doorstep of her younger sister, Stella, and her husband, the sexy yet brutish Stanley Kowalski. Blanche makes herself at home in the couple’s small apartment. However, Blanche’s web of lies to cover her past soon begins to crumble. Her downward spiral brings her face to face with Stanley, leading to a final plea of passion and desperation that changes them both forever. 68 years after it was written, A Streetcar Named Desire is as spellbinding as ever.
