oderlesseye Posted October 7, 2007 Posted October 7, 2007 PIRATES OF POINT LOMA ********************* Comes to Old Town (San Diego) in October. World premiere Oct. 12, 2007 with previews beginning Oct. 5th. Presented at the Compadre Theatre at the Adobe Chapel, 3950 Conde Street in Old Town San Diego. San Diego may have been a sleepy backwater in 1850, while Northern California was running wild with gold-rush fever, but that didn’t stop the birthplace of California from producing its own band of genuine pirates, according to a couple of early San Diego writers. These pirates had a base on the west side of the Coronado Islands and they preyed on gold-laden sailing ships headed south from San Francisco. Or so goes the story. Pirates of Point Loma is a rousing good tale, suitable for family and visitors, featuring a half-dozen favorite sea shanties with new lyrics and lots of bloodthirsty action. Preview weekend is October 5th through Oct 7th with Pay-What-You-Can admission for performances at 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, Oct. 5 and 6, and also at 4 and 6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday Oct. 6 and 7. Reservations are suggested. Opens formally on Friday, Oct. 12 at 8 p.m. and continue weekend performances through October at 8 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays and 4 and 6 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays. Tickets available at 2476 San Diego Avenue at the SOHO Museum Shop or by calling (619) 297-7511. Seniors, children under 12 and military are $10, all others $15. Advance tickets are recommended. http://www.myspace.com/oderlesseyehttp://www.facebook....esseye?ref=nameHangin at Execution dock awaits.
