Insights Seminars
This Monday night series provides Old Globe patrons with an opportunity to be more closely connected to the work on stage and backstage at our three theatres. A panel selected from the artistic company of each production (playwrights, actors, directors, designers, and/or technicians) engages patrons in an informal and illuminating presentation of ideas and insights to enhance the theatre-going experience. Each Insights Seminars take place in the theatre where the production is performed and includes an informal champagne reception.
Insights Seminars are Free to all donors and subscribers. For those not in either category, single seminars are $5. Teachers, students and seniors $3.
Age appropriateness: Teens and adults.
For more information, please phone Roberta Wells-Famula (619) 231-1941 X2144 or e-mail at rwells-famula@theoldglobe.org.
