The man with the funny haircut seems to take up most of the oxygen in the Elizabethan room, but what about other playwrights of the period? What about Thomas Kyd and his Spanish Tragedy? What about Kit Marlowe and his Tamburlaine? Or Ben Jonson, Will’s supposed pal? And the others? Kim Keeline will provide a survey of these contemporaries and consider any of their influence on the familiar canon.

The San Diego Civil War Round Table is hosting a “Show and Tell” program where buffs are invited, for example, to present a book review of their favorite campaign narrative or a travelogue about an especially fulfilling battlefield visit. We also certainly invite descendants to talk about their Civil War ancestors. Amateur historians may even wish to highlight some interesting fact uncovered in research. And if you have a non-lethal antique, such as a uniform button, belt buckle, or kepi, we would very much like to see and hear about it.

The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration has seen its staff cut by more than a third, and it's facing deep budget cuts. Progress on overdose deaths could be lost, experts warn.

The White House is proposing average cuts of 35% to agencies — except for the Pentagon and Homeland Security. Actual spending cuts though are up to Congress.

Set sail for an evening of raucous adventure and rollicking laughter as Grossmont College Theatre Arts presents "The Pirates of Penzance!" This timeless comic opera by W.S. Gilbert and Arthur Sullivan will sweep audiences off their feet with its infectious melodies, zany characters, and madcap wit. Directed and choreographed by Melissa Glasgow, with musical direction by Patrick Marion, "The Pirates of Penzance" will run March 20-27 at Grossmont College’s Performing & Visual Arts Center Stage. The production brings a fresh, dynamic energy to this beloved classic while honoring the rich tradition of Gilbert and Sullivan’s razor-sharp satire and high-spirited hijinks. "The Pirates of Penzance" follows the story of Frederic, a young man mistakenly apprenticed to a band of soft-hearted pirates. As he completes his term of service, he vows to dedicate himself to eradicating piracy—until a technicality binds him to the pirates indefinitely. Along the way, he encounters the beautiful Mabel, her eccentric father, Major-General Stanley, and a bumbling squad of police officers who are more charming than effective. What ensues is a delightful blend of romance, mistaken identity, and uproarious wordplay that has delighted audiences for over a century. “We are thrilled to bring this spirited, sidesplitting production to our audiences,” says director Melissa Glasgow. “With its unforgettable music, clever lyrics, and uproarious antics, “The Pirates of Penzance” is a theatrical treat for all ages.” The stellar cast features: Izzy Newman as Mabel, Drew Low as Frederic, Erica Rose as Ruth, Cameron Avendano as the Pirate King, Kaylee Kloberdanz as the Major General, Ryan Robbins as the Sergeant of Police, Iker Leal as Samuel (u/s Frederic), London Smith as Edith, Lizzie Cisneros as Kate (u/s Ruth), and Prizzy Rogers as Isabel. Ensemble: Amelie Padilla (Daughter, u/s Mabel), Alexi Ayer (Daughter, u/s Major General), Cali Stainbrook (Daughter, u/s Isabel), Maxine Levesque (Daughter; u/s Edith), Christina Salzano Ponce (Daughter, u/s Kate), Tori Mitchell (Daughter), Jorge Grave Rodriguez (Pirate/Cop), Ace N Spadesz (Pirate/Cop), Jordan Shepard (Pirate/Cop), Aubrey Schreier (Pirate/Cop), Camille Garo (Pirate/Cop), Armin Schwartzman (Pirate/Cop, Associate Choreographer), Joe Provo (Pirate/Cop, u/s Sergeant), Ray Newton (Pirate/Cop, u/s Pirate King). Swing: JD Edwards (Swing for Pirates/Cops, u/s Samuel). Join us for a night of piratical fun, soaring vocals, and swashbuckling spectacle as Grossmont College Theatre Arts sets sail with The Pirates of Penzance!
