The Importance of Being Earnest at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

In William Shakespeare’s Hamlet the kindly old Polonius sends his son, Laertes, into the world with some wise, fatherly advice.  “Neither a borrower nor a lender be.”  “Give every man thine ear, but few thy voice.”  And, my personal favorite, “to thine own self be true.”  However, I would have given my son one more piece of advice.  I would have told him that, above all, it is important to be earnest.  And no such lesson could have been better taught than Oscar Wilde’s play The Importance of Being Earnest showing for one weekend only at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore (Rosedale,

Matilda at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore.

Matilda at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

Roald Dahl’s Matilda is up and running at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore (ASoB). Directed by Anthony Case, the show keeps in line with other ASoB productions. There can be no question when it comes to ASoB and their dedication to the young thespians of the community. Even when the tech gremlins invaded opening night— the lights didn’t work and instead of leaving the house-lights up, the entire show was done with a follow spot on whoever was singing or speaking— the show must go on.

Aida at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

Every story is a love story.  That’s the message being preached by Artistic Synergy of Baltimore’s (established 2012) production of AIDA which opened on a rainy night in Rosedale, MD.  Based on the Italian language opera of the same name, Disney purchased the book rights in 1994 to turn it into an animated feature film.  However, it was instead reborn as a Broadway musical with music by Sir Elton John and lyrics by Tim Rice.

The Heat Is On: From Benny Southstreet to Truest Ethos a Chat with Marshall Logan Gibbs & Maxwell Wolf

Post-Pandemic, there are all sorts of things happening as the world settles into ‘new normal’ and finds its footing once more. That of course is true in the world of theatre, with companies getting back on their feet, some companies— regrettably— closing their doors permanently, and other companies springing up and getting started. It’s always exciting when a new theatre company gets under way in the Baltimore area. TheatreBloom is excited to be supporting— to borrow a quote from La Cage Aux Folles— all the old friends,

The Rude Mechanicals at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

Move over, Tom Stoppard (and also Disney-Marvel-verse). You no longer hold the market on “origin backstory/alternate POV” when it comes to Shakespeare. That’s right, there’s a new— okay, not new, per say— but there’s another option when it comes to doing weird stuff with Shakespeare that isn’t Shakespeare but still is totally Shakespeare. And Artistic Synergy of Baltimore’s children’s performance group has got it. The Rude Mechanicals, by Ed Graczyk, is now appearing on the ASoB stage,

Arsenic & Old Lace at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

Arsenic Silliness of Baltimore, no wait, that’s not right. A Summer of Brewsters, no that doesn’t sound right either. Oh, I remember, it’s Arsenic & Old Lace at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore!

Not only are they back, they are back with a bang, or in this case a sip.

Once Upon a Mattress at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

Tale as old as— wait. No. That’s not right. The seaweed is always greener— no. That’s not it either. The cow as white as milk, the slipper as pure as— oh. Definitely not.

Much Ado About Nothing at Artistic Synergy of Baltimore

Artistic Synergy of Baltimore (ASoB) presents a splendid rendition of Much Ado About Nothing, one of Shakespeare’s most well-known classic comedies.
