The Baltimore Shakespeare Factory’s goal is to represent our community’s diversity on our stage, our staff, our board of directors, and in our audience. We will be holding a focus group to discuss how we can better serve the community, listen to thoughts and feelings, and to receive guidance on how we can achieve our goals.
This is the first step in a larger effort, and while we welcome all voices, we would like this discussion to be with non-white members of the community.
If you are interested in joining us for this discussion, please RSVP online at

Jules Rosskam is an award-winning filmmaker, educator and interdisciplinary artist interested in liminal spaces: the space between male and female, between documentary and fiction, between moving image and still. His interdisciplinary practice works to induce a perceptual shift in our understanding of how and what bodies mean in the context of documentary film, toward an apprehension of multiplicities. He is the director, producer, and editor of transparent (2005), against a trans narrative (2009), Thick Relations (2012), Something to Cry About (2018), and Paternal Rites (2018).
InterPlay, a joint venture of UMBC and the Peabody Institute, began in 2016 as a way to connect UMBC undergraduate music majors with Peabody graduate students for their mutual benefit. Since that time, the partnership has evolved to include an innovative, interactive performance in Earl and Darielle Linehan Concert Hall, and a four-session teaching project, which to date have included master classes, chamber music coaching, audition preparation seminars and mock audition panels. For this performance, tenor Daniel E. Sampson will collaborate with pianist Natasha Talukdar.

In 1177 B.C., after centuries of cultural and technological evolution, the civilized and international world of the Mediterranean regions came to a dramatic halt, resulting in the world’s first recorded Dark Ages. In this lecture, based on his award-winning book of the same title, Eric H. Cline of the George Washington University explores why the Bronze Age ended and whether the collapse of those ancient civilizations might hold some warnings for our current society. A reception will follow the talk. This program is generously supported by the Boshell Foundation.
