Bread and Puppet Presents: The Basic Bye Bye Show!
7PM – 10PM
2640 Space
2640 St Paul St, Baltimore
In The Basic Bye-bye Show a series of quiet object fantasies unfolds in black, white, and grey inside a small fabric stage printed with elementary words — “Resist,” “Bread,” “Yes,” “Sky,” “Riot,” “Byebye.” Outside, an orchestra of nonsense instruments arises, spins, and recedes. A birch forest grows. Sculpted clouds produce hands, chairs, and rain. The storm passes. The episodes that make up The Basic Byebye Show develop in abstract counterpoint to periodic handkerchief-assisted “basic byebyes” to various brutal unnecessities of our current politics. After the performance Bread and Puppet will serve its famous free sourdough rye bread with aioli, and Bread and Puppet’s “Cheap Art” – books, posters, postcards, pamphlets and banners from the Bread and Puppet Press – will be for sale. The Bread and Puppet Practitioners-of-the-Pursuit-of-What Brass Band will welcome the public. This show is sliding scale – by donation!

The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare
Mar 9 – April 7
Chesapeake Shakespeare Company
7 South Calvert Street, Baltimore
“The Winter’s Tale” is Shakespeare’s dazzling fantasy about love’s enduring magic, celebrating springtime’s promise of renewal, rebirth, and second chances. The story unfolds like a medieval folk tale: an irrational king pays dearly and repents after abandoning his wife and infant. We follow the emotional journey of each character through the long, harsh winter of betrayal to a faraway springtime blossoming with the wondrous possibility of forgiveness and redemption. Along the way, there are both tears and laughter. Can what’s loved and lost be found? Find out. This is the play containing Shakespeare’s famous stage direction: “Exit, pursued by a bear.”

Joan Shelley w/ Cliff Murphy
8PM – 10:30PM
Creative Alliance
3134 Eastern Ave, Baltimore
The New York Times’ Jon Pareles, describes Joan Shelley’s “If the Storms Never Came” as “intertwined acoustic and electric guitars, harking back to Pentangle, [that] carry a serene modal melody and thoughts about how disruption is essential.” The description aptly captures Shelley’s work and her evocative songwriting as one the strongest voices to emerge from an Appalachian roots folk community that is as deep today as it ever was. Aided by the masterful guitarwork of Nathan Salsburg, Shelley’s sound digs deep into her Kentucky roots, while harkening to the British folk of Fairport Convention, Sandy Denny, and West Coast country. Her most recent record, the eponymous JOAN SHELLEY, recorded in Chicago with Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy, is perhaps her best yet.

The Winter’s Tale by William Shakespeare
Mar 9 – April 7
Chesapeake Shakespeare Company
7 South Calvert Street, Baltimore
“The Winter’s Tale” is Shakespeare’s dazzling fantasy about love’s enduring magic, celebrating springtime’s promise of renewal, rebirth, and second chances. The story unfolds like a medieval folk tale: an irrational king pays dearly and repents after abandoning his wife and infant. We follow the emotional journey of each character through the long, harsh winter of betrayal to a faraway springtime blossoming with the wondrous possibility of forgiveness and redemption. Along the way, there are both tears and laughter. Can what’s loved and lost be found? Find out. This is the play containing Shakespeare’s famous stage direction: “Exit, pursued by a bear.”
