From the first notes to the final breath, WEST SIDE STORY is one of the most memorable musicals and greatest love stories of all time. Mr. Laurents' book remains as powerful, poignant and timely as ever. The score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim—a collection of standards that includes "Tonight," "America," "Maria," "I Feel Pretty" and "Somewhere"—is widely regarded as one of the best ever written. And the extraordinary, Tony-winning winning choreography by Jerome Robbins completely changed the language of Broadway dance. Don't miss this thrilling presentation of a matchless work of art. October 27 through November 28th.
A San Francisco institution since 1974, Beach Blanket Babylon is a zany musical spoof of pop culture with extravagant costumes and outrageously huge hats.
