Tonight’s opening night gala for Theatre 29’s final production of 2014, “Shakespeare in Hollywood,” is sponsored by Tender Loving Cause, the celebrated non-profit organization that has put on the Tender Loving Christmas event for the past 30 years.
In this hilarious comedy-farce, its 1934, and Shakespeare’s most famous fairies, Oberon and Puck, have magically appeared on the Hollywood set for the filming of a big-budget feature film based on Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream,” and hilarity ensues. The TLC-sponsored opening night starts at 6 p.m. with a Shakespeare-themed dinner and silent auction. The curtain rises at 7. Desserts will be served at intermission. Tickets for the opening gala are only $25. For more information about TLC or to purchase tickets for opening night only, call Mara Cantelo at 760-333-2413. Tickets are also available at the Z107.7 Studios in Joshua Tree. “Shakespeare In Hollywood” will run five consecutive weekends through December 20. The curtain will rise Friday and Saturday nights at 7:00 p.m. and Sunday matinees will be at 2:30 p.m. on November 30 and December 14. After the opening gala, tickets are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors and military, and $8 for students with ID. Because of Mature themes the show is not recommended for children under 13. To purchase tickets and make reservations call the Theatre 29 Box Office at 760-361-4151 or purchase tickets online at theatre29.org.
