The Hippodrome Theatre will present AS YOU LIKE IT by William Shakespeare to the stage as part of the 49th Season, Back In the Spotlight.

The Hippodrome Theatre has announced the lineup for the New Works Festival 2020! The Hippodrome received nearly 50 play submissions from writers all over Florida. The selection team had the tough job of narrowing choosing which play will be selected to be performed and they so impressed with the material, the festival was extended to two days.

The famous mezzo soprano Fredericka von Stade is in San Diego this week rehearsing Three Decembers, one of several works written with her in mind by her close friend Jake Heggie. The chamber opera for three singers and 11 musicians will be performed three times next weekend at the 500-seat Patrick Henry PHAME Theatre. Von Stade recognized Heggie's talent long before he wrote his first opera and has been an influential champion ever since. Their friendship and collaboration have benefitted both. In my interview with her in a San Diego Opera rehearsal room she said, 'He's given me a second career with parts in Dead Man Walking and Great Scott, and a lot of song cycles. He's my guy.'
