BALTIMORE
Fall 2025 – Spring 2026
Inheritance Theater Project (ITP) is a national nonprofit that uses theater-making to spark conversation across silos and practice new ways of being in relationship with our neighbors. Over the past 10 years, we’ve worked in 18 cities across the U.S., supporting neighbors to collaborate across divides.
Now, we're bringing this process to Baltimore. Together with local artists and community leaders, we’re inviting you into a collaborative journey that uses playmaking and shared inherited texts as a new way into civic conversation. The process culminates in an original piece of theater created by and for Baltimore — but above all, our goal is relationship-building: to question, imagine, and practice how we want to be neighbors together.
Where We Are Now
Friendraising
Right now, we’re in our Friendraising Phase — getting to know Baltimore by meeting people where they are. We’re showing up in classrooms, community centers, houses of worship, and more to get to know you, listen, and learn: Where are neighbors already connected, and where are there gaps? Who might want to be a part of this project over the next year?
If you’re curious about the project or want to get involved, we’d love to meet you at an upcoming event!
