On Valentine’s Day, February 14th, 2012, the Producers of She'Baltimore are staging a Benefit to showcase the play and raise money for local charities aimed to support women dealing with domestic abuse. The play officially premiers on February 17th, 2012 and runs through February 26, 2012, 8pm at the LOF/t Theater, 120 W. North Avenue, Baltimore, MD, 21218. Following the performances, we will hold open discussions or “talk backs” between the cast, the audience, and TBA special guests.
She'Baltimore is a play centered around domestic violence within the LGBT community. Set in Baltimore, MD, the play addresses the American social system and it's relationship with communities that are often abstracted from proper care due to orientation, socioeconomic circumstances, and at times, discrimination.
The play illustrates the lives of two Baltimore natives, living together and dealing with the complexities of their romantic relationship. Their issues are deeply rooted in past traumas and family histories, combined with the challenges of their present day circumstances. She'Baltimore seeks to ignite conversation about an issue often ignored by society, and especially the LGBT community. This poignant presentation is an outcry provoked by the tyranny of domestic violence, but also an alternative love story which sets out to prove that in defiance of race, color, gender, socioeconomic status, occupation and orientation- LOVE, through compassion and guidance, is an elusive mirror which reflects it's desire back to, and through us all.
We believe that the support of the community is vital in this endeavor and therefore, we're offering group and student discount rates to all Universities and/or LGBT organizations, non-violence support groups, as well as what we call our “Friends of FAMILY Discount”. Additionally, we’re offering student rush tickets that may be purchased at the box office 1 hour prior to each show. Group reservations, questions, and additional information are available by contacting: SheBaltimore@gmail.com
