Avant Bard Theatre’s Resistance Readings Project continues with a staged reading of Every Good Boy Deserves Favour, Tom Stoppard’s darkly comic and sharply political examination of authoritarianism, censorship, and dissent, directed by Avant Bard Artistic Associate, Kathleen Akerley.
Set inside a Soviet psychiatric hospital, the play follows a political prisoner whose resistance to the state becomes inseparable from questions of sanity, truth, and personal freedom. Blending absurdist humor with urgent political commentary, the play remains strikingly relevant in moments of cultural and political uncertainty.

There’s something of a war of words going on between the sponsor and a key target of a soon-to-be new towing law.
Gov. Glenn Youngkin (R) recently signed two pieces of legislation — both backed by Arlington lawmakers — allowing Northern Virginia local governments to set tighter restrictions on tow operators. HB 959, introduced by Del. Alfonso Lopez (D), allows localities in Northern Virginia to pass “second signature” ordinances requiring towing operators to get express permission from lot owners before removing individual vehicles.
Arlington Ahead on Housing Production — “Housing production isn’t distributed evenly around the region. The Post determined each jurisdiction’s share of the regional housing target based on anticipated household growth this decade, and found D.C., Arlington County, Falls Church and Alexandria are on track to exceed their share of the targets. But the other nine jurisdictions represented by COG are all lagging. Fairfax County, the most populous jurisdiction in the region, is on pace to build only 36 percent of its target.” [Washington Post]
