February is drawing to a close, and we're getting closer and closer to springtime! It's not quite time to ditch the coats and snow boots, but that doesn't mean there aren't fun things to do in the cold. Here's what's going on in the state of Maryland for the next month:
Chicago at the France-Merrick Performing Arts Center: March 3-8
If you loved the movie, now's your chance to see the show live and on stage in Baltimore! What's not to like--it's got romance, jazz, crime and some incredible dance sequences. Get those tickets now, Marylanders.
St. Patty's Day Boardwalk 5K: March 14
There's more to the beach than just summertime sunbathing--and more than St. Patrick's Day than wearing green! Register for the Ocean City 5K and get moving down the boardwalk. Afterwards, runners can treat themselves to food and music at Shenanigan's Pub.

Life Through a Lens: Documenting Earth's Wildest Places: March 19

You'll have to come and find out!
Cinderella at the Modell Performing Arts Center: March 28
Princesses, get ready. The Ballet Theater of Maryland is putting on Cinderella, and if you need something else to satisfy you after the new Disney version comes out, you've come to the right place. Ballerinas and princesses? Someone's granted your wish!
