As Maryland has lifted restrictions and Delaware prepares to do the same later this month live entertainment is making a comeback at area beaches.
In Ocean City, the four-day Springfest event at the Inlet is scheduled for Thursday through Sunday, May 6-9. While the traditional series of concerts by national entertainers under the big tent has been scuttled this year, there will still be music galore outside in the parking lot courtesy of local favorites.
Springfest will showcase the music of about 30 performers over the course of the four days, with music running from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Thursday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday. Local legends Teenage Rust & the Rustettes, the house band at the former B.J.’s On the Water, will close out the Friday portion at 7 p.m. Another highlight will be the original music of the bluesy duo Rivers & Rhodes, kicking things off bright and early at 10 a.m. Sunday.

People who love theater and live performances are familiar with the quiet anticipation before the curtains draw open and the overture begins, hearing the soft hum of audience whispers and the rustling as people flip through playbills.
Meanwhile, in Rehoboth Beach, as Clear Space Theatre’s plans to build two new buildings on Rehoboth Avenue have been delayed, the wait has been anything but quiet as opposition from some community members prompted the city’s planning commission to reconsider the final approval of the design plans.
This monthslong back-and-forth came to a final decision Friday when commissioners voted 5-3 to approve the plans under certain conditions. Once Clear Space confirms that the building inspector has the most current drawings and receives building permits, the theater company will be ready to go to bid.
