When it came to gender fluid plays, William Shakespeare was way ahead of the curve even 400 years ago. At the time, young males routinely played the female roles anyway. He had already made cross-dressing hidden identity a part of “The Merchant of Venice” and would do so again in “As You Like It.”In “Twelfth Night,” the shipwrecked main character Viola disguises herself as a page named Cesario and earns the ardor of a countess, even as she really falls in love with a duke.

PHOTO: RYAN BAKERINK | There’s never a power shortage when Bob Mould comes to town. With a snarling guitar and yowling voice, he continues to electrify audiences just as he did 45 years ago when he was fronting the potent Twin Cities trio Hüsker Du. Back at the Black Cat in DC, where he’s played solo shows in the past, he was back in top-notch trio form with longtime backers Jason Narducy on bass and Jon Wurster on drums.

Among its other achievements, the world premiere of the Spanish language “Choke” at GALA Hispanic Theatre should also be noted as perhaps the first play to incorporate the collapse of Baltimore’s Key Bridge. It falls at the end of act one and was one of the changes made in Emilio Infante’s play, originally set in Corpus Cristi, Texas, but relocated to Baltimore to have a more immediate surrounding for East Coast audiences.

It’s not so strange, really, that there’s a serious opera about Apple co-founder Steve Jobs. His life’s work is usually invoked before every production of the last decade or more, when audiences are asked to silence their smartphones. Still, it’s notable that an art form that reached its creative peak in the 19th century is celebrating a figure of our lifetime.

Alejandro Escovedo’s solo return to The Hamilton in DC Saturday began with the ferocity and volume of his earliest punk days, about which he was singing. It ended with songs performed so softly, and without amplification, you practically had to hold your breath to hear. It was the last night of a three week solo tour just before a full band slot at the New Orleans Jazz & Pop Festival May 1.

Admittedly "opportunistic" CW execs say "there's always controversy with some sports" in defending its broadcast of LIV Golf. Yet no other sports draw criticism by Human Rights Watch and 9/11 Families, or boycotts by some of its top athletes. #TCA24
Snoop Dogg says he'll be "doing all the things that Snoop Dogg does" when covering the Paris Olympics for NBC this summer. But I imagine he won't be allowed to do all the things Snoop Dogg does on air. #TCA24
