Things to do in Baltimore this week 2/25/19

This week has a lot to offer! I already know I’m going to need a weekend to recover from my weekend. On Saturday my friends are hosting Potables from the Past at The Peale Center for Baltimore History and Architecture. It’s a fundraiser for the Peale which is an awesome historical arts and performance space and you should definitely attend. On Sunday I’m hopefully attending the Pig Parts and Pancakes breakfast at Foraged. Later I’m going to one of my favorite yearly events, the 8th Annual Ryes Up Against Cystic Fibrosis Charitable Gala at the Kimpton Hotel Monaco Baltimore. I love tasting all the cocktails and seeing all of my favorite bartenders in one place! Wish my liver luck!

Pygmalion – Spotlighters
Feb 15-Mar 10, Fri & Sat 8PM – 10:30PM. Sun 2PM – 4:30PM
Spotlighters Theatre
817 Saint Paul St, Baltimore
The sparkling wit and biting humor of Shaw’s script has made Pygmalion into a classic which has endured for over a century, still speaking to us about the false constructs of social class and wowing us with a portrayal of a strong woman who overcomes the conventions of her time. Eliza Doolittle, an intelligent, but poor woman who sells flowers . . . crosses paths with Henry Higgins, a boorish, insensitive, but brilliant linguist who studies phonetics. He realizes we are all equal under the skin and that social class is a matter of skilled behavior. What starts as a phonetic experiment becomes a social experiment. As these two headstrong people spar, we follow Eliza through to her emotional and financial independence, as Eliza herself realizes she was already a lady.

NYC trio Consider the Source defy easy description. If intergalactic beings of pure energy, after initiation into an order of whirling dervishes, built some kind of pan-dimensional booty-shaking engine, powered by psychedelics and abstract math, it’d probably just sound like a CTS tribute band. Drawing from progressive rock, fusion and jazz, with alien sounds soaked in Indian and Middle Eastern styles, CTS blends disparate parts into a striking, utterly original whole. Dubbed “Sci-Fi Middle Eastern Fusion”, the band’s music strikes a rare balance between cerebral and emotional, intellectual and primal. A relentless touring schedule has won the band a fervent following from California to Israel, with fans ranging from jam-band hippies and jazz cats to corpse-painted headbangers and prog geeks.
