The Coronado Historical Association invites you to the next lecture of our popular Wine & Lecture series. Richard Carrico, a well-known local historian, has a story to tell. Actually three tragically true stories of young women, one only a child, murdered in San Diego within four months of each other in 1931. San Diego’s sunny image as a beach town with quiet suburbs had a dark undercurrent of femicide. Join Richard Carrico as he discusses his new book, Monsters on the Loose, and examines the tragic murders of three such young women; Louise, Virginia, and Hazel. Over the course of the discussion, you may even find out if Richard has managed to solve one or more of these historic, true crime mysteries. If you have any questions please email info@coronadohistory.org or call (619) 435-7242. About the Author Richard L. Carrico| U. S.

By A.J. Schaar Original Text by William Shakespeare Directed by Kate Rose Reynolds This is what happens to Shakespeare's original text of Twelfth Night when its heroine, its 'beating heart,' is marauding through it as a ZOMBIE. Viola didn’t survive the shipwreck. But she still washes up in Illyria, with a single-minded purpose – brains. A loving massacre of Shakespeare’s masterful comedy, born from the realization that the original text can and does survive as its characters, one by one, turn into zombies, and that the sheer self-involvement of some characters transcends all need for earthly dialogue, and that one of the characters has, in fact, been swearing revenge for 400 years. Shakespeare meets creature-feature in this mash-up that promises to be unlike anything you’ve ever seen before.

The Year of the Dragon will be celebrated with the 19th annual San Diego Tết Festival in Mira Mesa from Friday, Feb. 16 to Saturday, Feb. 18 — attracting more than 30,000 attendees as the largest Lunar New Year celebration in San Diego County. The Year of the Dragon is typically considered an auspicious year, but for Vietnamese people, it’s even more special. The Vietnamese people are the product of the marriage of Lạc Long Quân (The Dragon Lord of Lạc) and Âu Cơ, a mountain snow goddess. Vietnamese often considered themselves to be descendants of dragons and gods (con rồng cháu tiên), according to Vietnamese myths. “It’s important that we connect our youth to their culture,” said Dennis Duong, president of the Vietnamese American Youth Alliance, which organizes the festival. “This is, at the core, what the festival is about — connecting with our roots and preserving the culture.” The three-day festival features lion dances, a Cultural Village, the Miss Vietnam Pageant, and Vietnamese food, music and vendors. Following the Heavenly Stems (Thiên Can) counting system, this year’s stem is Giáp in combination with Green, Yang, Wood, and East, which means this year is the Eastern Green Wood Dragon. Festival hours are 5 p.m. – 10 p.m. Friday, 11 a.m. – 10 p.m. Saturday and 11 a.m. – 9 p.m. Sunday. Admission is free.
