North Coast Repertory Theatre will be rocking with laughter as it closes out Season 43 with the hilariously inventive musical farce, A GENTLEMAN’S GUIDE TO LOVE AND MURDER.
Winner of the Tony for Best Musical among a raft of prestigious awards, the diabolically funny romp has Book & Lyrics by Robert L. Freedman, Music & Lyrics by Steven Lutvak and was based on a novel by Roy Horniman. When it first appeared on Broadway, critics and audiences lavished praise on the production, with the New York Times lauding it as “ingenious and inspired,” and The Wall Street Journal rhapsodizing that it “glitters like gold.”

This comedic musical tale about ambition, love, family and devious murder plots will have playgoers gasping with laughter and reveling in its lively, imaginative score.

This screening will feature “San Diego: America’s Wildest City.” San Diego is an oasis at the intersection of hostile worlds: the dividing line between the Mojave Desert to the East and the Pacific Ocean to the West; the Sierra Mountains to the North and Mexican border to the South. Meet the diverse array of wildlife thriving incongruously in a transformed landscape of manmade wilderness. From the dramatic rituals of grebes and the playful antics of ground squirrels to the thrilling hunts of orcas and the moonlit spawning of grunion, witness nature’s resilience and beauty amidst the urban sprawl.
Homegrown ArtBeat (HART) is an immersive, one-night celebration of San Diego’s creative heartbeat. It is not just an art show—it’s a living, breathing experience of San Diego’s creative pulse.
We invite you to step into the variety and vibrancy of San Diego’s art scene—not as a spectator, but as part of it. Through painting, photography, sculpture, textile arts, interactive performance, and live music, the event reveals how deeply art lives in our everyday surroundings, often unnoticed. We live among artists, stories, and expression every day. This night is about making that visible—so you leave not just inspired, but more awake to the creative richness around you all the time.

The quartet includes Leonard Patton doing vocals, Danny Green on piano, Mackenzie Leighton on bass, and Peter who plays a one-of-a-kind double neck guitar. The vibe is contagious!
