Great place to see live theater . Appreciate the music by real musicians in a small orchestra pit.

Lucille Fisher

One is San Diego's many cultural & historic highlights set in the delightful & equally historic Balboa Park - the biggest urban cultural park in America created in 1915. (100 yrs ago!)

Court Lani

Order your drinks before the start of the show and they will be ready for you right away during intermission!

Shakespeare Summer Series is always worthwhile. You can bring your purchased wine and coffees into the outdoor theater

HISTORY

In March 1978 the original Globe Theatre was destroyed in an arson fire. It was rebuilt & reopened in 1981. In 1984, the outdoor festival stage was also destroyed by arson. It too was rebuilt.

The Globe has grown into an internationally known theatre complex, an "influential powerhouse among regional theatres ." In 1984 it received the Tony Award for best regional theatre .

We never miss the annual Shakespeare festival ...highlight of our summer!

Do not ask for a glass of blue Merle wine during intermission . Because they will tell you 'never heard of it' and you will feel punked.

Jorge Leon

Great place to have a date
