Pizza from Woodstock’s in Santa Cruz
On Tuesday June 4, 2013, there are two events related to UCSC’s Shakespeare Santa Cruz (SSC), and one is a win-win for local pizza fans.
Pizza Benefit at Woodstock’s
Woodstock’s Pizza is donating a percentage of its dinner sales (good for dine-in AND to-go) between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m. to SSC – but ONLY for the customers that bring in a special flyer (click here). In case you’ve never been to Woodstock’s, it offers a lot of tasty pizza choices (including whole wheat, white, and gluten-free crust options), several salads (including organic spinach with almonds, dried cranberries, and organic balsamic dressing), and a decent beer selection. There is a huge amount of seating including a pleasant outdoor patio. Spread the word: depending on how much money SSC fans spend at Woodstock’s that night, SSC – a fabulous repertory theater company – will receive between 15% and 25% of these sales.
Season Preview at Bookshop SC
At 7:30 p.m., SSC Artistic Director Marco Barricelli is speaking at Bookshop Santa Cruz. He will introduce the 2013 summer festival season, share set and costume designs, and answer attendee questions.
Interested in going to a SSC play? The main 2013 SSC season starts July 23 and lasts until September 1. This year’s plays are Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew and Henry V. There is also a show that features SSC’s acting interns, always referred to as “The Fringe Show.” This year, they’re performing Tom Jones, adapted by Jon Jory from the novel by Henry Fielding, on August 20 & 27. All of this season’s performances are on UCSC’s campus at the outdoor Festival Glen. For more information or tickets visit shakespearesantacruz.org or call (831) 459-2159.
