  • Heddatron By Elizabeth Meriwether Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler in the age of Artificial Intelligence A wildly creative, absurd and surprising reinvention of Ibsen’s Hedda Gabler. Jane Gordon, a pregnant housewife, is abducted by robots, taken to the rainforest, and forced to perform Hedda Gabler by her robot captors. Meanwhile Nugget, her ten-year-old daughter, with the aid of her milquetoast father, an eager documentary filmmaker and her small arms dealing uncle must rescue Jane – whether she wants to be saved or not. As we approach the AI singularity, Heddatron constructs a bizarre and strangely familiar world of reality TV and rocket launchers where everyone, artificial or otherwise, just wants to feel a little bit human.

  • The Alliance Française San Diego invites you to embark on a journey through the delicate drawings of Joseph Le Dieu at the exhibition, "Promenade in Normandy," hosted at the Once Upon A Frame gallery in Solana Beach. Enjoy Le Dieu's creations from April 11th to 25th, Monday to Friday, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., with an opening reception on April 11th, from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. "Promenade in Normandy" offers a delightful immersion into the quaint landscapes and rich history of Normandy. But who is Joseph Le Dieu? Born in 1815 in Avranches, this lawyer turned painter led a life intertwined with art, yet his fame remained confined to the borders of Normandy until recently. Catherine Marie, the current owner of Le Dieu's collection, stumbled upon his works tucked away in a trunk. Since then, in partnership with the French Embassy in Washington, the drawings have journeyed from Edinburgh to San Francisco, garnering recognition from the prestigious Orsay Museum in Paris. "We are thrilled to share this remarkable collection with the San Diego community," expresses Julie Ripoll, Executive Director of the Alliance Française San Diego, a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting French language and culture. In addition to French classes, the Alliance Française organizes events such as the SD French Film Festival scheduled for June. The exhibition, which presents a portion of the whole collection, is hosted in the gallery space of Once Upon a Frame, a high end framer, renowned among artists, collectors, and designers in San Diego. With a team of designers hailing from France, the gallery shares a passion for promoting Francophone culture. For more information visit: afsandiego.org
