ABOUT
IRON CROW THEATRE
WHO WE ARE
Iron Crow Theatre is an award-winning, professional, not-for-profit 501(c)(3) organization and Baltimore’s queer theatre. Iron Crow Theatre produces queer theatre for a queer city, celebrating the renegade and the unorthodox in all of us. Iron Crow Theatre welcomes everyone. You do not need to identify as queer to work at Iron Crow Theatre.
OUR VISION
Iron Crow Theatre strives to build the future of theatre in Baltimore by producing bold, high-quality work while creating meaningful opportunities for artists and arts workers. We seek to fill a critical gap in Baltimore's cultural landscape by serving as a bridge between community theatre and the region's largest institutions, helping artists develop their careers, audiences discover exceptional local talent, and our city grow a stronger, more sustainable arts ecosystem. Through competitive compensation and an inclusive, professional creative environment grounded in artistic excellence, we are committed to ensuring that Baltimore's artists can create, thrive, and succeed right here at home.
SAFETY
Iron Crow Theatre is committed to producing work of the highest artistic quality and to a rehearsal and performance process that upholds the highest standards of professionalism; modeling ourselves after Equity theatres, we continue to admire greatly. We are devoted to fostering both a culture and an environment that embraces diversity and inclusion, promotes safety and well-being, and allows our artists to do some of their best work here - free from harassment of any kind.
When working on a production at Iron Crow Theatre, all cast and crew members receive Safer Spaces training to ensure a professional harassment-free workplace. In addition, Iron Crow Theatre’s staff, directors, and stage managers have been trained in a variety of best practices as it pertains to trauma-informed practices and staging intimacy by Theatrical Intimacy Education. Furthermore, an Intimacy Director is hired for each production requiring scenes of simulated actor to actor intimacy and a Fight Director for all scenes involving simulated actor to actor violence. In addition, members of our staff have been certified in mental health first-aid by The National Council for Mental Wellbeing.
Iron Crow Theatre utilizes the Equity deputy system for all productions and has a member of the board of directors serve as an ombudsperson providing direct access to additional support at the highest levels of the organization.

CURRENTLY CASTING
Wolf Play by Hansol Jung
Directed by Melissa Freilich
Rehearsals begin on December 7, 2026.
Performances begin on January 22, 2027, and end on February 7, 2027.
Synopsis: A Korean boy is ushered into a new house by his adopted American father. This new house belongs to an American boxer and her wife. American father un-adopts boy by a single signature on a piece of paper. But just before he leaves the new house, ex-father discovers that the new parents, to whom he has "re-homed" his ex-son, are a lesbian couple. American ex-father spends the rest of the play trying to get the boy back. In his corner is Ryan, the boxer's coach and her wife's brother. Ryan doesn't like the new Korean boy, who is a bit weird.
Wolf Play is a messy, funny, disturbing theatrical experience grappling with a wolf, a puppet and the very prickly problem of “What is a family, and what do we need from families today? Is it very different from what humans have needed from families before?”
