Note: The production has been extended for one week due to popular demand.By Sanaz ToossiDirected by Arya ShahiWinner of the 2023 Pulitzer Prize, the Obie Award, and the Lucille Lortel Award. In a classroom near Tehran, four adult students prepare for an English proficiency exam. They each have a reason for being there: a chance at opportunity, access, or a new calling. But as they bond over this new way to express themselves, they also grapple with the lives they must leave behind. Told with hilarious wit and genuine compassion, Sanaz Toossi’s "English" is “both a buoyant comedy of communication and a subtle but probing exploration of what it means to speak and feel understood” (New York Theatre Guide).This production includes strong language.January 27 – February 25, 2024(Opening night: Thursday, February 1)Sheryl and Harvey White TheatreConrad Prebys Theatre CenterRelated links:The Old Globe: website | Instagram | Facebook

When Pope Pius XII died in 1958, his papers were sealed in the Vatican Secret Archives, leaving unanswered questions about what he knew and did during World War II. In 2020, the archives were finally opened. Based on thousands of never-before-seen documents, David Kertzer’s “The Pope at War” paints a dramatic portrait of what the Pope did and did not do as war enveloped the continent and as the Nazis began their systematic mass murder of Europe’s Jews.Kertzer is the Brown University Dupee University Professor of Social Science, Emeritus, and Research Professor at the Watson Institute for International and Public Affairs at Brown. His publications include the Pulitzer Prize-winning “The Pope and Mussolini: The Secret History of Pius XI and the Rise of Fascism in Europe” (2014); “The Popes against the Jews” (2001); and “The Kidnapping of Edgardo Mortara” (1998).To attend in person: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/holocaust-living-history-workshop-featuring-david-kertzer-tickets-697001128137To attend via ZOOM: https://ucsd.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_9uNE__YtQKCVZ05k4TEAgA
