Stoop Stories B-more Proud: Queer Tales of Charm City

The Stoop Storytelling Series, in partnership with the Queer Jewish Arts Festival, presents B-more Proud: Queer Tales of Charm City! For this show, we are seeking individuals who identify as queer and Jewish to share a true, personal tale. Stories can be about anything related to identifying as queer and Jewish—how you met your partner, your bubbie ally, how your chosen family is your tribe—we want to hear them all! The Stoop Storytelling Series is a Baltimore-based live show and podcast that features “ordinary” people sharing the extraordinary, true tales of their lives. It showcases the stories of “ordinary" people, told in front of live audiences as large as 1,400. Stoop stories are weird, wonderful, hilarious, and heartbreaking—and, above all, intimate.

Raul Midón: Lost & Found Tour

Blind singer, songwriter, and guitarist Raul Midón is nothing if not prolific. His 14th and latest album, Lost & Found, is a blend of what he calls smooth folk, alt-pop, and jazz or "folk with harmonic surprises." It is a celebration of redemption with lyrics inspired by Bob Dylan’s poem "Last Thoughts On Woody Guthrie." A master at combining genres, “his music suggests a three way fusion of Stevie Wonder, Bobby McFerrin, and José Feliciano” (New York Times). Midón debuted the album’s first single, the uplifting bluesy pop song "Keep On Keeping On" on the The Jennifer Hudson Show in December 2023.

2nd Annual Charm City Burlesque & Variety Festival

The 2nd Annual Charm City Burlesque and Variety Festival runs Friday September 27 through Saturday September 28, 2024 at Baltimore’s Creative Alliance, home to some of Baltimore’s first burlesque and variety shows. Burlesque is many things. It is sexy. It is sly. It is seductive. It shines a light on the morals and foibles of modern life and mocks them openly. In Baltimore, Burlesque is all of those things, and it is also unabashedly weird, strange, dark, funny, and a little bit twisted. Baltimore’s burlesque and variety stages have always welcomed the different and the avant-garde. Baltimore marvels in the filthy, the strange, the strangely beautiful, and the sometimes questionable and it makes it its own. The Charm City Burlesque & Variety Festival celebrates all.
