The 2024 Old Globe Gala, themed “Black & White Masquerade,” took place on September 21, 2024, outside The Old Globe Theatre’s Copley Plaza. The annual black-tie event included a three-course meal by Urban Kitchen Group, cocktails by Snake Oil Cocktail Company, and dancing. There was also a special performance by Tony Award winner Aaron Tveit, known for his roles in Moulin Rouge! The Musical and Sweeney Todd.

The iconic theater also recently announced its 2025 season, which includes world premiere musicals, West Coast and San Diego premieres, and two of Shakespeare’s popular comedies. Highlights include the musical comedy Regency Girls; Huzzah!, a musical from the creators of Legally Blonde and Mean Girls, Nell Benjamin and Laurence O’Keefe; Empty Ride by Keiko Green; House of India by Deepak Kumar; and The Janeiad by Anna Ziegler.

Two West Coast premieres, Deceived by Johnna Wright and Patty Jamieson and Small by Robert Montano, will run alongside San Diego premieres of Appropriate by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and One of the Good Ones by Gloria Calderón Kellett. The annual Shakespeare Festival will feature All’s Well That Ends Well and The Comedy of Errors.
