To Ms. Greenidge, whose play is at the University of Maryland through March 5, supplying those roles for women is partly a matter of allowing a greater variety of people a chance to work, and to show what they can do.

“Sometimes in our field we like to tell ourselves that there isn’t enough room at the table for everybody. And there is,” she said — although someone might have to shove over to make space. “The people who are already sitting are happy there, and their elbows are taking up a lot of room.”

UMD TDPS' production of "Baltimore" opened on Friday, February 26, and will run until Saturday, March 5. Be sure to check it out if you haven't already!
