BALTIMORE — Superstar comedian Chris Rock will work the boards at the Hippodrome Theatre starting Friday night for a two-show gig that would typically garner a local sold-out crowd.
Enter Netflix stage right. And Will Smith stage left. The double whammies of streaming power and scandal and stardom mean Saturday night’s show, “Chris Rock: Selective Outrage,” livestreaming from the Hippodrome at 10 p.m., will likely reach millions.
The global event goes live from Baltimore’s historic landmark. What could happen? Probably not much more than what the 100-year-old theater has already seen.
