I’m ready for it to actually feel like Spring. This weather is toying with my emotions. If I see one more snowflake I’ll scream. Spring is my favorite time to be out and about in Baltimore. I love walking around the city. This week I’m wandering over to Puerto 511 Cocina Peruana to try out their new weekend menu and then hopefully checking out Out of Order. Light City 2018 – A Festival of Light, Music and Innovation is back for it’s 3rd year starting on Saturday. Let’s hope the weather is kind to it. If you haven’t been to Light City before, you need to check it out. I’m finally going to see I Love You, You’re Perfect, . . . Now Change at Spotlighter’s Theatre on Saturday. On Sunday I’m going to Points South Baltimore Drag Queen Brunch. It’s my first drag brunch in like 5 years so I’m super excited. So much to do, so much to see!

This time, improvisers will expand on those jokes, embarrassing life experiences, and generally absurd observations to create a night so fun, it’ll be difficult for improv and stand-up to remain strictly platonic friends.

Oh! To Be A Movie Star!
7:30PM – 9PM
Germano’s Piattini and Cabaret at Germano’s
300 S High St, Baltimore
Christine’s fascination with movies and movie stars began because she was an obnoxious child who began reading early. Or because of parental neglect. You be the judge. She first became entranced with movie stars at the age of 4 after her mother dropped her off at the movie magazines aisle at grocery stores, where she would blissfully enjoy the gossip about which stars were in a “trial marriage,” whose actual marriages were on the rocks, and who was having a secret baby. Her mother also plunked her down in front of the TV most evenings. Those were the days of Monday Night at the Movies, Tuesday Night at the Movies, Wednesday, Thursday, etc. and she saw a wide variety of 40s and 50s films, dramas, comedies and musicals. Her cabaret show, “Oh, to be a movie star!” draws upon these early influences. Christine has collected songs over the years, not specifically from movies but about them and their now-legendary stars. The show features familiar music by Elton John and Andrew Lloyd Webber and more obscure songs by Leiber & Stoller and Christopher Berg. Oh, to be a Movie Star! is, at turns, funny, touching, and above all, a celebration of the cinematic art.

Mar 23 – Apr 22, Fri & Sat 8PM / Sun 2PM
Spotlighters Theatre
817 Saint Paul St, Baltimore
This celebration of the mating game takes on the truths and myths behind that contemporary conundrum know as ‘the relationship.’ The production at Spotlighters is only the SECOND production of the new 2018 Revised and Updated Book & Score. Act I explores the journey from dating and waiting to love and marriage, while Act II reveals the agonies and triumphs of in-laws and newborns, trips in the family car and pick-up techniques of the geriatric set. This hilarious revue pays tribute to those who have loved and lost, to those who have fallen on their face at the portal of romance, to those who have dared to ask, ‘Say, what are you doing Saturday night?’ I Presented in the form of a series of vignettes connected by the central theme of love and relationships. The play’s tagline is “Everything you have ever secretly thought about dating, romance, marriage, lovers, husbands, wives and in-laws, but were afraid to admit.” It is the second-longest running Off Broadway musical.
