Inspired by the beautiful and storied history of San Diego, Shakespeare’s rollicking romantic comedy comes to life with color and music to weave a charming tale of mistaken identity, self-exploration, and the endearing pursuit of love. The Old Globe is pleased to announce a fall full of Shakespeare with this year’s annual Globe for All Tour, bringing a production of As You Like It to communities across our region.
