Absolutely San Francisco

BACK FOR A SUMMER ENCORE! The long-running hit,Absolutely San Francisco,is a one-woman, multi-character musical allegory about the San Francisco take on the American Dream. Take an imaginary cable car ride into a life-changing fog withSunshine - a free-spirited daughter of the 60s-who meets a range of "typical" San Franciscans while on a quest to find a powerful person to help her fight City Hall - and the meter maids who want to impound her shopping cart. The insightful, whimsical book and lyrics by Anne Nygren Doherty turn the city's stereotypes inside out and reveal the heart and soul of a city where the atypical is typical where hippies, drifters and dreamers rub elbows with striving immigrants and the top 1% of the "1%." Sitting in the cozy Alcove Theater, the audience laughs, cries and comes away deeplymoved by the hiddenbonds that tie these seemingly disparate people together.Enjoy the show Northside SF calls "Absolutely Amazing!"
