Baltimore, this is HUGE. We are so excited to announce our 2026/2027 season—our biggest and boldest lineup in years—and it’s a major moment for the city.
This 10-show season features 3 world premieres, groundbreaking new plays, high-energy musical events, powerful American classics, and can’t-miss special engagements with some of the most celebrated artists working today. It’s a season built to inspire, entertain, and put Baltimore firmly at the center of the national theater conversation.
From stories being told for the very first time to iconic works that continue to shape our culture, this lineup reflects the creativity, talent, and energy of this city—and invites you to be part of it from the very beginning.
This is more than a season announcement. It’s a statement: Baltimore is where new work is born.
What an incredible run of trinity by Lena Waithe at Baltimore Center Stage. ✨
Huge congratulations to our brilliant cast and crew who brought this powerful story to life night after night. We were honored to welcome so many amazing celebrity guests throughout the run, host unforgettable talkbacks with our audiences, and share the experience with more than 200 community members through free tickets, bringing so many new audience members into the theater.
With nearly the entire run completely sold out, the energy in the room was electric every night.
Thank you, Baltimore, for showing up, supporting bold new work, and making this production so special. ❤️
Award‑winning TV and film producer Lena Waithe is reintroducing herself as a playwright — and she chose Baltimore Center Stage for the premiere of "Trinity" the first play she's ever written and starred in.
Waithe and her team spent a year and a half in a writer's room developing the play, which she also stars in. When it was ready for audiences, she knew just where to bring it. In collaboration with director Stevie Walker‑Webb, Trinity has been selling out performances, earning an extended run, and drawing celebrity supporters —like Issa Rae, Debbie Allen, Megan Good, Vic Mensa and more.

Eternally grateful for the love that Baltimore and our culture have shown trinity.
To everyone who came through @bmorecenterstage , secured free tickets, told a friend, and shared your experience across social platforms—thank you hardly feels sufficient. There is nothing quite like a community gathering around theater, showing up to witness art together in real time.
Because of you, trinity is SOLD OUT for every performance through our final curtain on March 15. From the entire cast and crew, we honor your commitment to keeping Black art alive and thriving.
All performances are currently SOLD OUT, but standby seating is released day of show for those still hoping to witness it. Visit the link in bio | centerstage.org

Baltimore, you have wrapped trinity in such extraordinary care. Night after night, hearing audiences share what the play stirred in them—the laughter, the stillness, the conversations that continue long after the curtain falls has been deeply moving.
