There's a lot of stuff to love about Cal
Shakes: the natural vistas, the edgy reimaginings of classic theater, the
sculptures, the freedom to snack and sip throughout the production. But what if
you got there early? And what if there were a party waiting for you? For An Ideal Husband, we’re throwing a party
for our LGBT friends, free with your ticket to the show. Music, hors d'oeuvres,
and beverages are all included. And for those 30 or younger, tickets are just
$20.
Oh, and the play: An unwelcome visit from the past calls the future into
question for a successful and happily married politician in this scathing look
at society, politics, and marriage. Behind Oscar Wilde's trademark razor-sharp wit
lies a profound observation of the illusions we use to deceive others and–more
importantly–ourselves. Artistic Director Jonathan Moscone, fresh from his
acclaimed production of Man and Superman, directs Wilde's timely comedy.
One of the Bay Area's leading professional theaters, California Shakespeare Theater produces a summer season of boldly imagined, deeply entertaining productions of Shakespeare and other classic works; in-depth, far reaching education programs for learners of all ages and circumstances; and New Works/New Communities, a program bringing disparate communities together around the creation of a new American plays inspired by the classics. California Shakespeare Theater is a 501(c)3 tax exempt organization.
