Review: PILLAR RABBIT Hops Lively At Spotlighters through Sunday, August 25th
The Baltimore Playwrights Festival tradition continues at Spotlighters Theatre in Baltimore. Pillar Rabbit is an entertaining title that reveals little about the show, so I'm in for a surprise. I’m excited to learn that Opening Night is sold out. Play festivals can be a hard sell, since audiences perforce don’t know what they’re getting. For reviewers, however, we are at the very least assured of not sitting through yet another production of that thing we’ve seen several times already.

Since Key Bridge Collapse, Several Ships Have Experienced Trouble in Maryland Waters
The massive ships that regularly sail into Maryland carry cars, cargo, commerce — and a degree of potential calamity. That minute, but real, risk that each vessel presents became horribly apparent March 26, when the 100,000-plus-ton Dali cargo ship decimated the Francis Scott Key Bridge, killing six men, after losing power at the most inopportune moment. It was an unprecedented disaster, but a huge ship losing propulsion had happened before, many times, in fact. And in the months since the tragedy, there have been other instances of ships experiencing trouble in Maryland waters.
