The Free Spirits is an improvisational comedy ensemble comprised of senior citizens who are members of Theater World at the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute of UCSD. They range from 59-90 years of age and are the only regularly performing group of senior improvisors in San Diego. In 2024, they were the 3-time winners of the Sunday Night Smack-Down competition at the Mockingbird Improv Theater in Liberty Station, beating out three different groups of (much younger) competitors and earning themselves a 5-week residency. We are thrilled to welcome The Free Spirits for some “short form” improv of different scenes and formats, where everything they do will be uniquely developed on the spot, based on suggestions from the audience. The Free Spirits aim to prove that imagination never grows old and that having fun is great for the body and soul! Want to attend both Free Spirits Go West and As You Like It on Friday November 6th?

Sunday, November 1, the Carlsbad Village Street Faire will bring thousands of visitors to the Village for one of the largest one-day street fairs in the country. The Faire runs from 8:00 AM–4:00 PM and will result in significant crowds, street closures, increased traffic, and limited parking throughout Carlsbad Village. If you plan to attend the Sunday matinee of AS YOU LIKE IT, please allow significant additional time for travel and parking. We strongly recommend arriving in the Village earlier than you normally would and considering alternate parking or transportation options.
