Subscribers and friends of Compass Rose Theater Company had major cause for celebration last month with the opening of the troupe's new theater home in the Annapolis Arts District.
The redeveloped 2,900-square-foot space at 49 Spa Road now has a full lobby, classroom, library and a large backstage area for performers and dressing rooms, with a ceiling height of 25 feet and a 10-by-25-foot stage. Designed by Severna Park-based theater architect Gary Martinez, the theater comfortably seats 70.
Martinez described it as "a dynamic space for a dynamic company," and Lucinda Merry-Browne, founder and artistic director of Compass Rose, called the theater "the realization of the dream of a lifetime."
"The opening of Compass Rose Theater is a credit to the dream and determination of Lucinda Merry-Browne and her team of board members and supporters," Annapolis Mayor Joshua Cohen said at the opening celebration. "It is also a testament to the vitality of Annapolis' burgeoning arts community, and it will strengthen our young and growing arts district."
The March 22 debut came in time for the third show of the professional teaching theater's second full season, and those attending had double cause for celebration in Compass Rose's choice of Lee Blessing's "Eleemosynary." Told through a series of flashbacks, Blessing's 1985 play probes the complex relationships of three women: 75-year-old grandmother Dorothea, her daughter, Artemis (Artie), and Artie's teen daughter, Echo.
Estranged from her domineering mother, Artie winds up abandoning Echo, thus leaving her upbringing to Dorothea. We learn that the free-spirited Dorothea, who had been forced after high school into an arranged marriage by her father, had little interest in her three sons born before the birth of her only daughter, Artie. But Dorothea tried to persuade her daughter to do impossible tasks, and Artie escaped to build a career as a scientist.
Artie's own daughter was given the name Barbara but is raised as Echo by Dorothea and has almost no contact with her mother. Echo and Artie talk only in phone conversations, where the topic is spelling words for an upcoming national contest.
Director Matt Bassett makes the drama between the three independent women come alive. In his program notes, Bassett stresses that Blessing gives the definition of "Eleemosynary" — relating to charity or being charitable — to remind us that "each of the Westbrook women looks to give and receive charity. Their difficulty in doing so is where their troubles lie."
Bassett has little trouble communicating the dimensions of maternal expectations, and daughters' struggles to meet them.
Dorothea is played by Ilona Dulaski, a member of the Actors Equity Association and the Screen Actors Guild‐American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. With an extensive musical background, Dulaski makes a memorable Compass Rose debut here in a strong portrayal softened by humor. This complex character is clearly not as tiresome as described by Artie.
Janel Miley, also debuting at Compass Rose, has the role of Artie, and conveys her torment at disappointing her mother and her fierce determination to escape her dominance. Miley, who brings an impressive list of credits from Baltimore and Washington theaters, makes Artie's abandonment of her daughter poignantly understandable, and also makes the audience feel her aching attempts to communicate with Echo.
As Echo, teenage Maya Brettell mostly succeeds in her portrayal of a brilliant, driven girl determined to win the national spelling bee — and with it, the admiration of her grandmother and mother.
Brettell is required to deliver complex monologues expressing Echo's need for a genuine connection with her mother, with lines like, "The sound of your voice that says, 'I love you' and 'I failed you.' No one ever failed me, not grandmother and not you."
Such profound lines are a tall order for a teenager, requiring a level of careful enunciation that was promised in Saturday's performance and will presumably come even more fully in future performances.
"Eleemosynary" runs about 90 minutes with no intermission. Performances are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. through May 12. Tickets are available online at compassrosetheaer.org or by calling 410-980-6662.
Chorale at St. Anne's
Meanwhile, the Annapolis Chorale concludes another stellar season next weekend at St. Anne's Church, Church Circle, in Annapolis, when J. Ernest Green conducts contemporary masterworks of composers John Rutter, Morten Lauridsen and Karl Jenkins.
Rutter's beautiful "Mass of the Children" and Lauridsen's magnificent "Lux Aeterna" are perhaps better known than Jenkins' "Requiem," introduced in 2005. Jenkins brings new meaning to the traditional "Requiem" by using unexpected Japanese and European elements to make music that's truly for today's generation.
Concerts are at 7:30 p.m. April 19 and 8 p.m. April 20. Tickets can be ordered at liveartsmaryland.org or at Maryland Hall Box Office at 410-280-5640.

10 Things NOT To Do In A Job Interview
By Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter
You spent years honing your career, driving your on- and offline brand, and equipping yourself with the right resume. Now, you've been invited into that all-important job interview. To succeed, there are several things you should always do, but perhaps more importantly, there are also things you should avoid at all costs. Here are 10 ways you could fail at your job interview, and ways to steer clear of them:
1. Arrive late.
There is no excuse for interview tardiness. MapQuest and auto navigation systems are at your fingertips to set your on-time driving course effortlessly. Plan for traffic jams and other logistical obstacles by leaving for your interview way ahead of your appointment. The worst that can happen is you arrive early. Use the bonus time to review your prep materials.
2. Dress inappropriately or appear ungroomed.
Women: Are you displaying excessive cleavage, wearing a too-short skirt or globbing on the makeup? Men: Are you arriving unshaven, sporting long hair or stifling the room with aftershave? Also keep in mind that body piercings and tattoos can be distracting to an otherwise open-minded interviewer. Consider expectations of interview process formality; often, the most flexible cultures anticipate a conservative presentation during the interview meeting. Instead of asserting your unique personal style, focus on what's important: dialogue that convinces a hiring manager that you will contribute to the company's bottom line.

If your response to the question, "Why do you want to work for ABC Company?" is a deer-in-the-headlights stare, then you failed. This seemingly innocuous question is actually a power-packed opportunity to genuinely demonstrate why the company should be interested in you. Be specific in identifying one or two key reasons the company's culture, leadership, product, or service appealed to you and then couple that with a particular example of how YOU will fit in/add value. With today's access to deep-Web insights (via Glassdoor, LinkedIn, corporate websites, and Google searches), there is no excuse not to brush up on a company before the interview.
4. Behave disrespectfully.
Whether it's the front-line receptionist greeting you in the foyer, the human resources professional pre-screening you, or another employee passing you in the hallway, mind your manners through each interaction. Everyone with whom you come in contact is a potential influencer to the decision-maker who impacts your future.
5. Chew gum or fidget.
While nerves may be in check before the interview, the simple act of crossing the "threshold" into the interviewer's quarters often triggers a visceral reaction that can induce excessive gum chewing, fidgeting, and/or sweating (or all of the above). Have a plan of action to manage your nerves so that they don't manage you. Spit out your gum; practice crossing your ankles and folding your hands, and/or wear sweat-resistant clothing or special deodorant.
More:Do Job Interviews Have To Be So Grueling?6. Drone on and on.
Preparing a flexible script ahead of time will help avoid rambling as you search for the right words. Typically, there is a common pool of questions from which interviewers draw upon. By preparing for 15 to 20 of those, you will be equipped, to a large degree, for many possible questions. You can pull from a combination of those practiced (but not memorized) responses to create succinct, intelligible replies.
7. Forget your resume.
While it's likely you were called into the interview based on the resume that the recruiter, human resources professional, or hiring decision maker received, don't assume they won't appreciate a hard-copy resume at the time of the interview. Bring several printed copies to the interview, as you may be meeting with a series of folks. Each one deserves his or her own fresh copy.
8. Bring a bad resume.
Amateurish, outdated, and non-value-add resumes can be a strike against you. Executed poorly, a sluggish, old-school, inarticulate, and unfocused resume may be just the reason to eliminate you from the running in a tight race.
9. Forget to say thank you.
Demonstrating appreciation for the interviewer's time during, as well as following the interview is critical. Manners matter, always.
10. Think the interview is mostly about you.
The interview, at least initially, is about the company's requirements. It is considering hiring and paying you to fill a void. You must prove you can fill the employers' particular needs; that you can remove pain, solve problems, fix customer issues, save time or money, generate more revenue, build upon profits, and/or reverse declining market share.
Yes, you will be choosing a company that fits "your" needs, too, but initially at least, your primary focus is to influence them to want to know more, and ultimately, extend an offer.
Many of these interview-derailing behaviors will be exacerbated by the inherent stress of employment meetings. By quashing them now, you can take necessary steps to reduce chances of failure and increase opportunities for new job success.
