  • The Alzheimer's Association of San Diego/Imperial Counties chapter hosts a national leader in research and outreach for people living with the disease.
  • From '5 plays to see in San Diego in February' (KPBS feature) In 1955, Alice Childress wrote "Trouble in Mind" about a Black actress performing in an anti-lynching play, but that play-within-a-play was written by a white playwright and directed by a white man. Racism, rivalries, misogyny, inequality, and the fraying sense of well-meaningness are all aired out as the production gets ready — and this is how the "Trouble in Mind" plot unfolds. The Old Globe has assembled an excellent cast and crew for this story, with San Diego's Delicia Turner Sonnenberg as director, Ramona Keller as the lead and local Bibi Mama (a playwright in her own right) also in the cast. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS Listen to our interview on KPBS Midday Edition with director Delicia Turner Sonnenberg and actor Bibi Mama, and read the full feature here. From the theater: The Old Globe is proud to present "Trouble in Mind", a thrilling new production of a too-often neglected American classic. About the play —New York, 1955. A leading Black actress and a multiracial cast rehearse a challenging new Broadway play set in the South. Backstage rivalries and showbiz egos cause excitement of their own, but artistic differences between the cast and the White director soon bubble to the surface, revealing the truths that American drama covers over and the ways in which even well-meaning people can harm others under the guise of helping. Contains strong language. The New York Times recently called Alice Childress’s groundbreaking Trouble in Mind “a rich, unsettling play that lingers in one’s memory long after its conclusion.” "Trouble in Mind" will be showing at The Old Globe from Saturday, February 5 through Sunday, March 13.
