Top 7 ThingsTo Do In San Diego This Week
Ordinary riches can be stolen, real riches cannot. In your soul are infinitely precious things that cannot be taken from you.” ~ Oscar Wilde
1. Sunday, March 25- Theater: RUMORS
Four affluent couples gather in the posh suburban residence for a dinner party celebrating their hosts’ tenth anniversary. When they arrive, they discover there are no servants, the hostess is missing, and the host – the deputy mayor of New York City – has shot himself through the earlobe. Marital violence? Attempted murder? A failed suicide? Comic complications arise when, given everyone’s upper class status and variously, temporary deafness, whiplash, a fat lip, new age crystal use, a bad back and the strain of stopping smoking affects their decision to do everything possible to conceal the evening’s events from the local police and the media. As the confusions and miscommunications mount, the evening spins off into classic farcical hilarity.
