Supporting Shakespeare with Al Pacino

Meeting the legend (again)…On Thursday, June 23rd, we celebrated the remarkable career of Al Pacino in a one night only fundraiser benefiting the Shakespeare Center Los Angeles. No surprise, Pacino enthralled the audience with insights on his memorable roles, a no-holds barred Q&A session, and also a dramatic reading of “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears” from Julius Caesar by the Bard. Topping it off was a private meet-and-greet where we also flipped through some private photos of the exact spot (the Rostra Romanum) where the Mark Antony would’ve delivered the eulogy.

An Afternoon with Al Pacino

Pinch me! Just spent an intimate afternoon with the legend himself as we watched his 1979 movie, “And Justice For All.” More than four decades ago, this movie presented a raw commentary on greed, brutality, and racial and social justice in a way that few movies can nowadays. There’s a reason they call it a “classic.”
