The pointy- eared, fanged star arrived with an entourage of bodyguards, personal assistants, agent, lawyer and publi- cist.

Welcome to Picasso at the Lapin Agile! We're Thrilled to Kick Off 2017 With
FEBRUARY 2017 WELCOME JIM COX elcome to Picasso at the Lapin Agile! We’re thrilled to kick off 2017 with this funny, fascinating, and endlessly W surprising play. As we begin a new year, we also celebrate the phenomenal successes of 2016. Last year, the Globe broke box office records with hits like Meteor Shower (another Steve Martin comedy) and our acclaimed productions of October Sky and Sense and Sensibility. It was also an outstanding year for philanthropy. Individual donors gave generously to support our mission, and the Globe reaped the benefit of major foundation and government support. Our Arts Engagement Department successfully launched a slate of new programs funded in part by The James Irvine Foundation’s New California Arts Fund, and the National Endowment for the Arts awarded the Globe a major grant to support new play development. In every way, 2016 was a banner year for The Old Globe. We couldn’t imagine a better way to start 2017 than Picasso at the Lapin Agile. Not only does the production mark the welcome return of writer Steve Martin to the Globe, it pairs him with his longtime collaborator—and our Erna Finci Viterbi Artistic Director—Barry Edelstein. Here, Barry shepherds an all-star cast featuring returning Globe favorites alongside talented performers making their Globe debuts. 2016 will be a tough act to top, but this show bodes well for another banner year of great theatre in Balboa Park. We hope to see you often at the Globe in the coming year! MISSION STATEMENT The mission of The Old Globe is to preserve, strengthen, and advance American theatre by: creating theatrical experiences of the highest professional standards; producing and presenting works of exceptional merit, designed to reach current and future audiences; ensuring diversity and balance in programming; providing an environment for the growth and education of theatre professionals, audiences, and the community at large. -

Programming; Providing an Environment for the Growth and Education of Theatre Professionals, Audiences, and the Community at Large
AUGUST 2016 WELCOME Welcome to the funny, unexpected, and delightfully off-kilter world of Meteor Shower. With this world premiere production, we’re thrilled to continue our ongoing relationship with the brilliant artist Steve Martin. The Globe’s production of Bright Star, Steve and Edie Brickell’s new musical that premiered here in 2014, transferred to Broadway earlier this year, where it was nominated for an impressive five Tony Awards, including Best Musical. Next season, the Globe will mount a major revival of Steve’s 1993 play Picasso at the Lapin Agile. We’re glad Steve has found a new artistic home here in San Diego. The Globe is an especially fitting place to premiere Meteor Shower because it is a DOUGLAS GATES California story. Set in Ojai in the 1990s, Managing Director Michael G. Murphy and Erna Finci Viterbi Artistic Director Barry Edelstein. the play examines a specific moment in the life of our state. It’s a theatrical snapshot of the mores and (kooky) ways of society in Southern California, and though it’s set in the past, it’s eminently recognizable to Californians today. It’s also a pleasure to welcome yet another artistic director of a major regional theatre here at the Globe. Gordon Edelstein is the Artistic Director of Long Wharf Theatre in Connecticut, the great company we’re partnering with to co-produce this show, and the fifth artistic director to helm a show at the Globe this year. And because we know you’re wondering: no, Gordon and Barry are not related, except in their devotion to the wonders of theatre. -

Top 10 Acts to See at the Green River Music Festival
Top 10 Acts To See At The Green River Music Festival Celebrating 30 years of music, art and fun, The Green River Music Festival will take place this weekend from July 8 – 10 at Greenfield Community College in Greenfield, Massachusetts. It’s a stacked bill featuring a few rock ‘n’ roll legends, folk and soul upstarts and even a handful of local acts. There will be music happening on three stages and everywhere you look there will be something incredible taking place. There are also going to be after parties going on in the heart of the town. For you to know who to check out and when, here are my Top 10 Acts to see this weekend: 10 ) Winterpills (Sunday 1:10pm @ Four Rivers Stage) One of the locals on the list, Northampton, Massachusetts, folk rock act Winterpills have incredible harmonies that stick with you and never let go. When Philip Price and Flora Reed combine their voices beautifully, stunning things happen. The band possesses soothing acoustic-based rock music that has as much power and emphasis as an act that’s fully electrified. I’m excited to see how Winterpills are live, and I know a bunch of others are as well. Check them out to start the last day of the festival off right. 9.) Shakey Graves (Saturday 7:35pm @ Green River Stage) Shakey Graves is the moniker of Alejandro Rose-Garcia from Austin, Texas. He brings an authentic brand of rock ‘n’ roll to the forefront by melding folk and blues to create awesome Americana. Rose- Garcia has a one-man band set-up and he has an uncanny ability to captivate an audience in an instant.
