Happy Birthday, Mr. Shakespeare!

Uncategorized Download To My Calendar
The Old Globe would like to invite friends, Romans, countrymen ? all of San Diego, in fact ? to celebrate its resident playwright William Shakespeare?s 400th Birthday.
Birthday games and activities will run the gamut of eras from Elizabethan to today, happening from 10 AM to 1:00 PM Saturday, April 23, on the Globe?s Copley Plaza and in the Craig Noel Garden, as well as in the theaters.
Globe alumni, musicians Clinton Davis and Mark Danisovszky will recount the hits of Shakespeare?s day, as local artist and DJ Miki Vale drops the banging-est beats, for the first-ever Sonnet Karaoke. (Challengers welcome! Bring your own sonnet or monologue memorized, or choose one of the selections.)
Shakespeare-themed activities on the Plaza will include life-sized board games. In the garden, little ones are welcome to create their own Shakespearean puppets and perform in an interactive puppet theater show. Grab a photo of your friends in the stocks or as the original Queen Mum, Elizabeth I.
Don?t forget to stick around for the birthday cake at noon, and to unwrap Shakespeare?s birthday present.
