​​PAST EVENTS
December 7 - 15, 2024
Goldman Theater - Washington DC Jewish Community Center
Baltimore Theatre Project.
Rigoletto (Circus Version)
This circus version of Rigoletto, complete with a circus band and bawdy new text by Bari Biern, became a victim to 19th-century censors that found its exploration of the misdeeds of the powerful too dangerous for the public eye. The production will roar to life on the stage December 7-15 at the Goldman Theater DCJCC and the Baltimore Theatre Project. At once darkly devilish, toe-tappingly infectious, and horrifically funny, Verdi’s masterpiece is made intimate, in-your-face, and inescapably enjoyable under the big top.

Las Misticas de Mexico
2024 opens with a thrilling immersive music-drama-art experience from IN Series, one that brings together music, poetry, art, and creative expression of over four centuries of mystical Mexican female artists. The iconic poet nun Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, songstresses MarÃa Grever, Toña la Negra, and Chavela Vargas, and images by the great Frida Kahlo are joined with contemporary voices of Mexican women creatives continuing the legacy of making visionary art. These artists adorn an anonymous 11th century chant drama in a new English translation by Anna Deeny Morales, who leads a team of non-Mexican female artists finding inspiration in Mexican mystical art. It is a collaboration with the Mexican Cultural Institute to celebrate 100 years of bilateral relationships between our two countries.
Audiences will experience this immersive art installation with transporting projections by Abigail Hoke-Brady and a new work imagined by one of DC’s most acclaimed artists, Marta Pérez GarcÃa. Tina Chancey (Desdemona), of the Hesperus Ensemble, leads the music for the mobile performance, featuring ten of IN Series most beloved vocalists, the Washington Children’s Chorus, and traditional Mexican dance.
