Description

The Old Globe Theatre invites you to join us for this special Globe for All Tour and West Coast Premiere of Skeleton Crew. The Old Globe is bringing a production off our stage and on the road to share with our San Diego neighbors a funny, engaging and timely theatrical experience.

ABOUT THE SHOW
Times are tough in 2008 Detroit, but there’s still one working auto plant. The long hours and demanding shifts have turned the line workers into a family. The firm, compassionate Faye holds them together, and she’s only months away from retiring with her full pension. But when she discovers that management has a new plan, she’s torn between self-preservation and allegiance to her coworkers. Ben Brantley of The New York Times called Skeleton Crew “a deeply moral and deeply American play ... squarely in the tradition of Arthur Miller.” 2015 Craig Noel Award winner for Director of the Year Delicia Turner Sonnenberg makes her Globe debut.
Contains strong language. Appropriate for ages 13 & up.
