Programming; Providing an Environment for the Growth and Education of Theatre Professionals, Audiences, and the Community at Large

JANUARY 2015 WELCOME

Welcome to the music and mayhem of Murder for Two! We’re delighted to introduce San Diego audiences to the talented writing team of Kellen Blair and Joe Kinosian. Not only will you get to enjoy the ingenious story they’ve crafted (driven by Kellen’s clever lyrics and Joe’s engaging tunes), but you will have the added pleasure of watching Joe wear multiple hats. Literally. In this production, composer and co-book writer Joe Kinosian will step on stage to play 10 different roles as he and fellow performer Ian Lowe take us through all the twists and turns of a classic murder mystery.

Murder for Two also brings director Scott Schwartz back to the Globe. This is Scott’s sixth directing outing here, so if you’re a frequent Globe theatregoer, you may have already seen and enjoyed his work on DOUGLAS GATES Golda’s Balcony, Lost in Yonkers, Brighton Managing Director Michael G. Murphy and Artistic Director Barry Edelstein. Beach Memoirs, Broadway Bound, or A Room with a View. It’s a pleasure to welcome him back to the Globe stage.

This year marks a major milestone for The Old Globe: in 2015, we observe our 80th year. Throughout the year, we’ll be celebrating and reminiscing with stories and photographs that take us back through Globe history as we commemorate eight decades and nearly 900 productions. We hope you enjoy these memories and join us in drawing inspiration from them for the next 80 years.
