Two of the biggest drawcards in World Rugby, New Zealand and Fiji, will face off for the first time on American soil at San Diego’s Snapdragon Stadium, on Friday, July 19 at 7:30 p.m. The Steinlager Ultra Low Carb Series match will be the All Blacks third Test match in 2024 and promises to be a tough and entertaining contest between two teams known for their expansive running rugby. The two Pacific nations will draw rugby fans from all over the country with an electric, attacking brand of rugby that will help continue to grow and develop rugby within the United States as it builds toward hosting both the men’s and women’s Rugby World Cup in 2031 and 2033, respectively. Both the All Blacks and Fiji Water Flying Fijians currently sit among the top ten ranked teams in the world and had positive results at the 2023 Rugby World Cup in France with the All Blacks beaten finalists, narrowly missing out on their fourth World Cup title, and Fiji beating Australia for the first time in 69 years and making the quarter-finals, equalling their best ever finish. This will be the twelfth time the two sides have met since their first Test in Suva in 1974 when the home team Fiji narrowly lost 14-13. It will be first time the two teams have played on neutral soil and the first time the Fiji Water Flying Fijians have played in the USA, with the All Blacks last playing in America in 2021. New Zealand rugby legend Ma’a Nonu, who has played 103 Tests for the All Blacks and recently signed on for another season with the San Diego Legion, and Fijian legend Waisale Serevi, a member of the World Rugby Hall of Fame, are in San Diego to announce the match alongside key members of the San Diego Legion.

What would you do if someone offered you more money than you've ever seen to do something worse than anything you've ever done? It all starts when a man named Charlie wanders into the quiet midwestern town of Hope Springs one clear autumn day. Some believe Charlie is an angel but he sure stirs up one devil of a mess. Who is Charlie and what is he up to? This Christmas, travel back to 1940’s America, the Swing Era. Presented by the award-winning North County Players, "Hope Springs, Eternal" uses the music, sets, and costumes of the time, along with humor, drama, and twists you won't see coming, to tell a story not only of deceit and corruption, but also of redemption and the meaning of Christmas itself. "Hope Springs, Eternal" is written by master storyteller and nationally published playwright Charles Carr ("Passage Into Fear;" "Old Dogs, Dirty Tricks;" "All the Time in the World"). Carr’s shows, which feature modern plotting and pacing, have been produced all over the country. "Hope Springs, Eternal" is told in the familiar style of beloved classics like "A Christmas Carol," "Miracle on 34th Street," and "It's a Wonderful Life." Shows take place in our intimate 100-seat Studio 1 Theatre. With great seats as low as $20, tickets are priced more like a movie than traditional theater, to enable as many as possible to experience the special wonder that is live theater. "Hope Springs, Eternal" is just the ticket to get you and your whole family into the holiday spirit! Visit: https://artcenter.org/ California Center of the Arts on Instagram and Facebook
