We’re back with another GIVEAWAY! Win a pair of tickets to THE MONSTERS at , opening June 2.

Ever since he was a teenager, the world has labeled BIG a monster. But to his sister LIL, he was simply her goofy and loving protector – until BIG unexpectedly left. Now BIG is an aging but accomplished force in the local mixed martial arts circuit, while LIL keeps tabs on her estranged brother from the shadows, studying every punch he throws. But when she suddenly appears on his doorstep, BIG finds himself reluctantly pulled into a new type of fight: one for forgiveness and love.

“The Monsters hits hard and hugs harder… For anyone who grew up with siblings, it might revive the urge to bust out the couch forts and start pretending all over again.” San Francisco Chronicle

Award-winning playwright Ngozi Anyanwu stars alongside Sullivan Jones (HBO’s The Gilded Age) in this humorous, heart-mending and action-packed love letter to family and siblings.

GIVEAWAY! The most awarded play of 2025 is coming to La Jolla. Win a pair of tickets to PURPOSE at , opening May 12.

Fresh from winning the Tony Award for Best Play, the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award and the Drama Desk Award, PURPOSE by Brandon Jacobs-Jenkins is “a thumping, riveting, guns-blazing, major new American play” (NY Daily News). Celebrated San Diego director Delicia Turner Sonnenberg leads this West Coast premiere production.

For decades, the influential Jasper family of Chicago has been a pillar of Black American politics: civil rights leaders, celebrity pastors and congressmen. When the youngest son Nazareth returns home with an uninvited friend in tow, the family is forced to reckon with decades of secrets and unresolved tensions that threaten to topple their empire.

As The New York Times said: “PURPOSE showcases Jacobs-Jenkins’ vivid language, spitfire dialogue and sweeping sense of American history… you may have trouble catching your breath from laughing so hard.”
