We invite you to join RESDC for an evening of theatre on March 15th! We will be attending the musical On the 20th Century at Cygnet Theatre in Old Town. We have a limited number of tickets available at a group rate!
Founded in 2003, Cygnet Theatre is a leading regional company and one of San Diego’s cultural icons. Each year, Cygnet Theatre creates an eclectic mix of 6 or 7 mainstage productions, from classics to Broadway-style musicals.
On the 20th Century Show Overview: “It’s nonstop laughs aboard the Twentieth Century, a luxury train traveling from Chicago to New York City. Luck, love, and mischief collide when the bankrupt theater producer Oscar Jaffee embarks on a madcap mission to cajole glamorous Hollywood starlet Lily Garland into playing the lead in his new, non-existent epic drama. But is the train ride long enough to reignite the spark between these former lovers, create a play from scratch, and find the money to get it all the way to Broadway?”
When: Wednesday, March 15. Show begins promptly at 7:30pm. We recommend arriving 30-45 minutes early to locate parking and pick up your tickets from the RESDC representative.
Note: This is a Preview Performance. Previews are a set of public performances of a theatrical presentation that precede its official opening. The purpose of previews is to allow the director and crew to identify opportunities for improvement that weren’t found during rehearsals, and to make adjustments before critics are invited to attend.
