Theatre Hopkins' 83rd season continues in collaboration with the Johns Hopkins University Theater with "Boy Meets Girl," Sam and Bella Spewack's comedy, opening Friday, April 15.

This giddy 1930s classic focuses on two Hollywood screenwriters and high-spirited gambits designed to resuscitate their flagging careers.

The cast is led by internationally known actor and Johns Hopkins faculty member John Astin and Johns Hopkins alumnus and acting instructor Loren Dunn. Members of the Johns Hopkins University Theatre comprise the balance of the cast. James Glossman, Johns Hopkins faculty member and associate artistic director for the Playwrights Theatre of New Jersey, directs.

The production will run four weekends through Sunday, May 8, at the Merrick Barn on Johns Hopkins' Homewood campus, 3400 N. Charles St., in Baltimore. Curtain time for Friday and Saturday performances is 8 p.m.; Sunday matinees begin at 2:15 p.m.
