Forget ChatGPT- Come chat furrreal and try to spot some wild creatures hiding around San Diego! We may have been hearing about the tech changes coming our way, from social media lawsuits to the implications for chatbots like ChatGPT.

America’s Finest City is becoming America’s best city to unplug as we join the 14th annual Global (formerly National) Day of Unplugging with many fun activities happening around town from March 3-4.

San Diegans can try to spot the furry creatures in La Mesa and at various other locations (Mom's Pies and Fort Cross in Wynola, Regulars Wanted in Julian, Rancho Guejito vineyard in Escondido). They can take a nature hike at Dictionary Hill in Spring Valley or San Dieguito County Park, take a mandala rock painting class in Coronado or step into a sound bath for deep relaxation in Crown Point.

We also meet Uncle Louie and Aunt Gert, with their own idiosyncrasies and set of survival issues. Look out! I love the humanity, vibrancy and spirit of this play. Loaded with humor and heart, perhaps we'll see that with a little help, we can make it through our darkest days.” The cast of San Diego Performers includes SRT Artistic Director, Jill Drexler as Grandma Kurnitz, Katee Drysdale as Bella, Kenny Bordieri as Eddie, Eddy Lukovic as Louie, Melanie Mino as Gert, J.P. Wishchuk as Arty and Giovanny Diaz de Leon as Jay.
