Befitting the wooded picnic setting, however, no tears were shed at “Smuin al Fresco.” This was a happy milestone as the mainstay Bay Area dance company became the first to return to live performance.

Erika Chong Shuch and Ryan Tacata will launch The Great AAPI Elder Print Off with For You performance collective and in partnership with Little Brothers Friends of the Elderly (LBFE).

The pairs will have three conversations before the artist creates an 8½ x 11 homemade activist poster to amplify the voice of the elder. The project will culminate in a virtual celebration with an exhibition (June 26-27) both online and in the windows of homes and organizations lobbies across the nation. ....

Eric Ting remembers the chill that passed through the room when someone coughed during the California Shakespeare Theater gala in March of last year. The annual fundraising event essential to the theater’s $5 million budget was celebrating a turning point for the 47-year-old company, where Ting became artistic director in 2015: He would announce that Cal Shakes was planning to move its offices and shop from Berkeley to downtown Oakland, showing that “where we make our home reflects our priorities,” and he would describe ways the company would be collaborating with community partners. “It was kind of a seminal moment,” Ting says.1 ....

Shakespeare had his pandemic, too

Shakespeare did everything in style. Even sheltering in place.
