The Old Globe Comes to Coronado
“Double, double toil and trouble; Fire burn, and cauldron bubble!”
Join the Coronado Public Library as the Old Globe’s professional Globe for All touring company brings a thrilling performance of Shakespeare’s "Macbeth" to life. The thrilling tale of ambition, betrayal, witches, and prophecy is FREE and open to all! Refreshments begin at 5:30 p.m., with the curtain rising at 6 p.m. No reservations required; seating is first-come, first-seated.
Director Marcela Lorca brings to life one of Shakespeare’s most gripping and beloved plays. Driven by a mysterious prophecy and the fierce ambition of his wife, the noble warrior Macbeth seizes the crown of Scotland in his daring quest for glory. What follows is one of the greatest thrill-rides in world drama, as a marriage and a kingdom are shaken to their core by the forces of desire and destiny. Shakespeare’s electrifying tale of power and consequence brims with witches, omens, and restless spirits—making it a nail-biting theatrical experience.
The Old Globe tours a professional theatre production around community partners in San Diego and Tijuana for free performances, workshops, talkbacks, and catered meals.
