Bailiwick Repertory’s Directors Festival 1992, produced by Cecilie Keenan, offers productions ranging from plays and musicals to performance art and monologues; some are well-established classic and contemporary selections, while others are brand-new pieces. They’re mounted by a slew of directors, most of them little known, who are looking for an avenue to showcase their work and get their names out to the public. See? It’s working already. The festival concludes with two “Best of the Fest” programs reprising a handful of shows deemed to be the worthiest of repetition. Program A, listed below, runs an Thursday and Saturday, April 23 and 25. Program B, yet to be chosen, will run an Friday and Sunday, April 24 and 26. Each night’s admission price is good for any or all shows that evening; listed starting time is for the whole night’s program, so call the theater if you’re just interested in seeing a show. Bailiwick Repertory, through April 26 (Theatre Building, 1225 W. Belmont, 327-5252). Thursdays-Saturdays, 7:30 PM; Sundays, 3:30 PM. April 16 program, $6; “Best of the Fest” programs April 23 through 26, $10.
