The Rude Mechanicals in residence at Greenbelt Arts Center presents:
King Lear
by William Shakespeare
directed by Claudia Bach
August 22 – September 6, 2025
Location: Greenbelt Arts Center
In the mid-twentieth century, King Lear and his family are in a close but crumbling family structure. What seemed stable, grounded in family expectations, slowly collapses around them, along with their abilities, perceptions of the world, and even their identities. This American gothic tale will take these characters from privilege to tragedy through their failure to see each other clearly until it is too late.
Tickets: $24 General Admission, $22 Seniors/Military, $12 Student/Youth. Buy tickets here.

The Bowie Community Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse presents:
The Dining Room
by AR Gurney
directed by Stacy Kessler
Performance Dates: July 25 – August 17
Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30PM, Sunday matinees at 2PM
Location: Bowie Community Theatre at the Bowie Playhouse
Constructed as a series of interrelated vignettes all taking place in the dining room of a well-to-do household, the play takes an in-depth look at the lives of a vanishing species: the upper-class WASP. The ensemble cast has actors changing roles, personalities, and ages as they portray a slice-of-life view from many different families. The varied scenes dovetail and coalesce into a theatrical experience of exceptional range, compassionate humor, and abundant humanity.
