And Then There Were None at Bowie Community Theatre

The more palatably named And Then There Were None, the latest production from Bowie Community Theatre, is a gorgeous show. No surprises there— director Tatum Moss’s aesthetic sensibilities are always on point, and the Bowie Playhouse remains among the more impressive community theatre venues in the DMV. Moss’s set concept is expertly realized by designer Dan Lavanga: even before the action begins, the set, with its elegant doors, fireplace, and bar — with various knickknacks (including an excellent Ten Soldier Boys poster and curious disappearing figurines to remind us why we’re here) and furniture courtesy of props designer and set dresser Roy Hammond — suggest the quality of the production to come.

The Maryland Greenway Where You Can Walk, Bike, or Jog Beneath Trees Without the Noise of Busy Roads

Experts share why drinking in high altitude feels so different — and how you can prevent getting sick

Experts have revealed why high elevation levels can make you feel drunker Getty Images This weekend, fresh on the heels of the historic blue wave at the midterm elections, thousands of Democrats are descending upon Denver for a summit plotting the party’s next steps.

After learning about the What’s Next conference, one X user wrote: “looking forward to witnessing the intersection of denver altitude change and dc drinking habits this week,” while another added, “Sea level people can’t drink with the mountaineers. No lie.” With Denver nicknamed the Mile High City for its elevation sitting 5,280 feet — exactly one mile — above sea level, it makes sense that people coming from Washington, D.C. or New York City might be met with the mile high effect, complete with altitude sickness.
