The Bard’s birthday—his 460th!—is an exciting and festive occasion to celebrate his countless contributions to arts and culture around the world. This year’s event is unlike any other. Our theme is Henry 6: The Experience, and you don’t want to miss it. The festivities will include Shakespearean monologues and scenes performed by M.F.A. students from The Old Globe and University of San Diego Shiley Graduate Theatre Program, a fight choreography demonstration and workshop led by Ben Cole, a musical DJ battle between the house of York and the House of Lancaster, the H6 Foley workshop, and a crafts station for kids of all ages to enjoy. Plus, all attendees are invited to join in the “Happy Birthday” sing-along celebration with cupcakes.
