Axis: Juneteenth Celebration
From The Old Globe:
Saturday, June 18 from 12:00 noon to 2:00 p.m. in the Lowell Davies Festival Theatre.
Join us in our outdoor theatre for our free Juneteenth Celebration in collaboration with the George L. Stevens Senior Center! Hosted by Gill Sotu, this event’s lineup includes poetry and music by performers Def Sound, Reg E Gaines, and Brittany Taylor; a choir performance by David Dredden and Undefeated; a Juneteenth storytelling by poet Alyce Smith Cooper; a comedy set by Kree Rushing; and a presentation by The Old Globe—all sharing performance pieces inspired by the annual holiday.
Although offered for free, tickets are required as this is a general admission event. If there is a waitlist for this event, we encourage everyone to register as there will be ample seating available.
