SUMMARY:Merlin
DESCRIPTION:UMBC Theatre presents Merlin by Susan McCully\, directed by Eve Muson. During a catastrophic storm surge in Baltimore’s Inner Harbor\, a mutual-aid collective coordinates emergency shelter operations while a woman searches desperately for her missing dog\, Merlin. Inside a media studio used as an emergency coordination center\, activists navigate tensions surrounding privilege\, leadership\, and collective responsibility while organizing shelter for hundreds of displaced residents. Meanwhile\, Merlin undergoes a surreal evolutionary transformation — from dog to otter to fish to microalgae — symbolizing ecological interdependence and adaptation. As the storm intensifies\, the characters confront the limits of individual heroism and the necessity of collective action. The play ultimately imagines survival through networks of cooperation and mutual aid rather than domination or escape. \n\nPerformances \nThursday\, April 1\, 7:30 p.m. — Opening Night Reception\nFriday\, April 2\, 7:30 p.m. — Free performance for UMBC students\nSaturday\, April 3\, 2 p.m.\nFriday\, April 9\, 7:30 p.m.\nSaturday\, April 10\, 7:30 p.m.\nSunday\, April 11\, 2 p.m. — Free performance for UMBC students\, Prospective Student Day\, Actor Talkback \n\nTicket information is forthcoming. \nASL Interpreted performances are TBA. If you have requests around accessibility for any of our performances\, please email the UMBC arts box office. \nUMBC Theatre events are open for full participation by all individuals regardless of race\, color\, religion\, sex\, national origin\, or any other protected category under applicable federal law\, state law\, and the University’s nondiscrimination policy. \n\nGraphic design by Eric Abele. \n\n\nThis event is supported in part by the Arts+ initiative. \n  \n  \n
