BALTIMORE, MD — Flipping the Script Productions (FTS) is thrilled to announce its upcoming presentation of Peter Filichia’s “Musicals Without Music,” directed by George Andre Tittle. This unique, immersive production will play for two performances only at the

La Familia Soundstage on Sunday, March 29, 2026, @ 2:00 & 6:00 PM.

A New Way to Experience Theater

Breaking away from the traditional proscenium arch, “Musicals Without Music” transforms Baltimore’s La Familia Soundstage into an intimate, high-energy nightclub setting. Ditching rows of theater seats for tables and chairs, the production promises to “break the fourth wall,” bringing the action directly into the audience for a truly interactive experience.

The Show: SNL Meets Broadway

“Musicals Without Music” is exactly what it sounds like. Through a series of fast-moving, “SNL-style” sketches, the show explores the hilarious and poignant moments that happen after the music stops.

“Peter Filichia has a way of honoring musical theatre while also poking at it, questioning it, and celebrating the wonderful spaces it lives in,” says FTS Founder Stephen Rourke.
