Directed by Giovanna Sardelli, the production will play the Sheryl and Harvey White Theatre, part of the Globe's Conrad Prebys Theatre Center, Sept. 24-Oct. 30. Opening night in San Diego is Sept. 29 at 8 PM.

Tony winner Priscilla Lopez, most recently on Broadway in the Tony-winning In the Heights, will head the cast as Inez, the headstrong matriarch of the Candelaria family. Lopez was nominated for a Tony Award for the role of Diana in the original Broadway cast of A Chorus Line; she won the Tony Award for her performance in A Day in Hollywood/A Night in the Ukraine.

Lopez will be joined by Juan Javier Cardenas (Francisco Candelaria), Leo Ash Evens (Jamie MacRae), Benita Robledo (Rebecca Candelaria) and Jon Rua (Alejandro Candelaria).

The creative team includes Campbell Baird (scenic design), Charlotte Devaux (costume design), Lap Chi Chu (lighting design), Jeremy J. Lee (sound design), Greg Graham (choreographer) and Elizabeth Stephens (stage manager).

Set in 1959, Somewhere, according to press notes, "follows one New York City family’s attempt to make its fantasy a reality. Inez Candelaria and her three children dream of a life in show business. When they learn that their home is being torn down to make way for Lincoln Center—and that the filming of 'West Side Story' will take place on the streets of their demolished neighborhood—they must fight for their dreams as their world crumbles around them."

Tickets are currently available by subscription only. Single tickets will go on sale on Sept. 4. Tickets can be purchased online at www.TheOldGlobe.org, by phone at (619) 23-GLOBE or by visiting the Box Office at 1363 Old Globe Way in Balboa Park.
